There is little more rewarding than presenting
at a Annual NACADA conference. Not only do I benefit from the research
and work of putting together the presentation, but I also enjoy
the experience of passing that information along and learn tremendous
amounts from the conference participants who attend my session.
It's a great feeling to know that the work that you do is appreciated
and the information that you present is valued and valuable. I highly
recommend presenting to everyone that I meet - present alone, present
on a panel, - just get out there and share your ideas!

Presenting at the Annual Conference
has allowed me to share my knowledge and research with others but
more importantly has given me the opportunity to learn from a wide
range of individuals. First year advisors, advising administrators,
experienced advisors, and faculty advisors all have something to
share and bringing them together at individual sessions has allowed
me to expand on my ability to serve students and “borrow” from others. The bottom line is that advising is a very challenging and rewarding profession and one that is always a work in progress.

I began presenting at NACADA conferences
because I love learning from other presenters. I realized that others
might be excited to hear about some of the new things we have been
trying on our campus as well. It has been very rewarding to have
peers in my profession express their appreciation for giving them
new tools/ideas to take back to their campus. A major component
of advising is sharing knowledge... whether it's with our students
or with each other!"
