Member-Created Panel Submission
Panels will consist of 5-6 individuals currently directing, organizing, running or otherwise involved in pathway programs, including as a student or former student. After panelist introductions, a moderator will ask questions of the panelists before facilitating audience member questions. Each panel session will be designated 50 minutes.

Panelists will be responsible for organizing the initial question-and-answer session as well as recruiting a moderator.

Research Poster Presentation
During Research Poster Presentation sessions, presenters will virtually “stand” next to their posters and facilitate a 20-minute presentation on their research. Following a series of presentation blocks, an open period will be provided for attendees to follow up with presenters at their posters and further discuss their research processes and findings. Attendees may visit one or more posters during the open period.

Programs, Highlights, and Innovations
Program, Highlights and Innovations speakers will develop posters to share information and/or updates on their program with the larger ASPBP community. The goal of the Programs, Highlights and Innovations session is to allow ASPBP members to exchange ideas and insight on pathway programming work. Content may include lessons learned related to the program, recruitment strategies, curriculum modifications, JEDI efforts, growth and expansion, etc. As the community surrounding pathway programs and bridges continues to expand, learning what other programs are doing and finding a sense of community in the work of others is incredibly valuable.

Individuals who presented program description presentations at previous ASPBP conferences are welcome to submit in this category if interested in presenting updates or innovations.


Roundtable Guided Problem-Solving Session
Round Table Guided Problem-Solving Sessions are an opportunity to present a problem, challenge, or issue you have worked through in your ASPBP program and foster a collaborative discussion with attendees experiencing a related situation.

These sessions will be scheduled for 50 minutes. The presenter(s) will introduce the topic, while the rest of the time should be dedicated to informal discussion and/or problem solving. These sessions are not intended to have a formal presentation with a slide deck but could utilize a shared whiteboard or other collaborative tool. This is an opportunity for networking and engagement amongst the attendees.

Individual Panelists
ASPBP values contribution from diverse voices. To this end, we will offer panel discussions in both traditional and non-traditional formats.

Selecting from these individual panel nominations, the ASPBP Conference Planning Committee will form panels of 5-6 individuals currently directing, organizing, running or otherwise involved in pathway programs, including as a student or former student. These sessions will allow a panel of experts to answer audience questions about a specific topic. After panelist introductions, a conference moderator will begin asking questions of the panel members before facilitating audience member questions. Each panel session will be designated 50 minutes.

You will have the ability to turn your camera on or off throughout the sessions and we encourage you to keep them on throughout the conference. Our conference platform was chosen to make our virtual conference more interactive! As a note, leaving your video off may help your connection, if you are having any issues.
