ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

 

The AEEE annual conference is the premier professional development event for TRIO funded program in the states of  New York and New Jersey serving all students from low-income backgrounds, and who are first-generation-to-college. Join us virtually Tuesday, Aug. 3 – Thursday, Aug. 5 as we Celebrate 44 Years of Access, Equality, Empowerment & Excellence. Information on specific workshop sessions will be available soon. Check back for details.

Why is it Virtual?

While we would very much like to be gathering in the beautiful either on of our beautiful states conversing over dinner or face-to-face networking this summer, we feel that a virtual conference prioritizes the safety and well-being of our network and communities. We also recognize the burden that traveling for an in-person conference poses to many of us, who are still grappling with pandemic-related  fears. A virtual conference  also will allow us to keep expenses low and deliver high-quality content at an affordable rate. AEEE’s 2020 virtual conference was a successful experience that attracted over 150 registrants and we will be looking forward to doubling this number this year.
