The ten Region Conferences are a major part of NACADA's service to its members and to the profession.  Approximately 3000 academic advisors, faculty advisors, advising administrators and others interested in enhancing student success attend each year.  The meetings provide opportunities for discussion of current issues, professional development and networking. Participants usually attend to find answers to questions and solutions from fellow colleagues who have experienced and solved similar challenges as well as new ideas for improving academic advising processes and programs.
