AAUW’s National Conference for College Women Student Leaders (NCCWSL) is where hundreds of young women come to turn a moment into a movement. Each year, we bring together hundreds of college women from around the country for three days of leadership training, inspiration and networking. Women gather from throughout the nation to discuss and learn about contemporary issues facing leaders. This year’s event will include sessions on career development, mentorship, financial literacy, racial-justice activism and more. Participants will have an opportunity to explore post-graduate programs, careers in a variety of disciplines and other opportunities for their future.
You will attend workshops, hear from some of today’s most inspirational women, and have the opportunity to network with professionals, graduate schools, and many others. But the best experiences and lessons will most likely be learned from other conference attendees you will meet – people from different places who have unique experiences and viewpoints. Enter the conference as a passionate leader and leave it with the skills and confidence to pursue your goals.
