From dlager at azhighered.gov Fri Jun 12 16:10:02 2020 From: dlager at azhighered.gov (Deena Lager) Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2020 21:10:02 -0000 Subject: [NASSGAPnonmember] NASSGAP - Save the Date!!! Message-ID: Dear Colleagues, Please mark your calendars for the 2020 NASSGAP conference, to be held Tuesday, October 13th through Friday October 16th! The COVID-19 pandemic has brought many changes to our normal routines. State budgets across the country have been impacted and multiple state agencies have also imposed travel restrictions for staff through the end of the calendar year. As such, the Executive Committee has decided to host our first ever “virtual” NASSGAP conference. While we will miss exploring Cincinnati, Ohio together, we are excited about our plans to “see” you all on a safe and socially distanced computer screen. Good news! The Executive Committee has decided to waive the conference registration fee for all NASSGAP members this year due to the virtual format and agency budget constraints. This is an amazing value for all NASSGAP member organizations and their staff. If your agency is not already a NASSGAP member or you have not yet renewed your membership, now is the time! As you are thinking about the best way to maximize your limited budget dollars, consider all the benefits of a $1,000 NASSGAP membership this year: a) Year-round access to a forum of your colleagues and industry leaders for the development and exchange of information, ideas, policy positions, and procedures. b) Access to collaborate with other associations, councils, and agencies with similar goals. c) FREE access to the 2020 conference for your *entire* staff; a savings of $450 per person registered. If only three people from your office attend, the membership has paid for itself and saved an additional $350 plus travel expenses! To join or renew your membership, visit the NASSGAP website at www.nassgap.org . The conference committee is curating a diverse collection of interesting sessions and speakers. Conference registration details and a draft program will be shared over the summer. Enjoy the weekend and stay safe and healthy! *NASSGAP 2020 Conference Committee Co-chairs & Members-At-Large* *Renée Davis and Deena Lager* rdavis at nshe.nevada.edu and dlager at azhighered.gov [image: image.png] Deena Lager Director of Arizona Student Financial Aid and Director of the Arizona Family College Savings (529) Program Arizona Commission for Postsecondary Education 2020 North Central Ave., Suite 650 Phoenix, AZ 85004 Telephone: 602.542.7235 Email: dlager at azhighered.gov www.highered.az.gov and www.az529.gov *...expanding access and increasing success in postsecondary education for Arizonans* -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
