2019 Conference Consortia

Plan now to attend the 2019 SIOP Pre-Conference Consortia!

SIOP is continuing its efforts to create career pipelines for ALL members. On Wednesday April 3, 2019 the SIOP Consortia Committee will host four (4) partially integrated consortia that will help meet the educational and development goals of all in attendance. An overarching goal of the Consortia is to provide a socialization experience and networking opportunity to graduate students and early career professionals embarking on their career pathways. Thus, we are continuing the three-decade tradition of hosting consortia to graduate students (Master’s Consortium and Doctoral Consortium), the more recently added Junior Faculty Consortium, and our most recent addition, the Early Career Practitioner Consortium!

This (4) part program provides a well-rounded, comprehensive career pipelines graduate students through those experiencing early career transitions in both applied and academic professions. Consortia participants gain the benefit of information exchange and networking with others within the same career track AND similar stage of career. Below, we provide some highlights of this year’s events.

See you Washington D.C. at the National Harbor!!
