Event Description
Regional Salons are half-day, virtual, curated opportunities for UPCEA members to engage in accessible, no-cost professional development and networking, offering a balance of formal presentations and facilitated, two-way, informal conversation. These lively gatherings are designed for members by members, around a theme or topic of critical importance, and tap subject matter experts in and outside of UPCEA, as well as spotlight the important work of our members. Regional Salons provide members a chance to grow their professional networks, to showcase their accomplishments, and to solve unique and shared challenges with peers.

From Silos to Bridges: Building Relationships Across Departments, Institutions and Industry

Join us for a half-day virtual Salon focused on dismantling the barriers that hinder collaboration and innovation in education. This interactive event will focus on strengthening partnerships across the educational landscape. Together, we’ll explore practical strategies for building meaningful relationships within our institutions, Industry, and across other campuses, including high schools, community colleges, and universities. Discover how intentional connection can drive innovation, equity, and shared success. The workshop will include a dynamic presentation and breakout sessions. Participants will share stories, strategies, spark ideas, and forge connections to create more integrated, student-centered pathways.

UPCEA Regional Salons are ideal for leaders and practitioners who seek to stay informed and inspired while engaging with colleagues facing similar opportunities and challenges within their region.  

Register now to secure your spot and join this community of learning, sharing, and professional growth.
