New to our annual symposium? Take a look at last year's conference information to help you get to know us. Here's a list outstanding speakers from previous National Symposium of Student Retention events.
Full details on the events, speakers, schedule and topics of the symposium will be posted here as they are confirmed. The focus of the National Symposium on Student Retention is not merely on retaining students from the first-year through the second year of their academic program. This conference is interested in sharing current research and strategies which support student success throughout the entire Student Retention Lifecycle supporting student success from enrollment, through year to year retention, to completing a course of study that leads to graduation.
The National Symposium on Student Retention offers attendees a complete educational experience, with opportunities for collaboration and networking among leaders and peers working to understand and improve student success. The symposium focuses on research and evidence-based strategies that impact student retention and completion. Informative sessions are coupled with a collegial atmosphere to facilitate networking and interaction among participants. Executives, administrators, institutional researchers, faculty and staff from the academic and student support areas will find this symposium useful and informative. Concurrent Sessions and the Call for Proposals Process Brief overview CSRDE is particularly interested in papers, panels, tutorials, and posters which address current, evidence-based research that advances knowledge in student retention and success. Proposals are submitted to address audience participants at introductory, intermediate, or advanced levels of experience. While we do have some participants interested in introductory information, many seek the advanced levels of understanding required for executive level positions. The presentations at the conference investigate many areas, both broad-based and specific. Tracks include: Programs and Initiatives, Beyond the First Year, Special Populations, Data, Technology and Methods, Theoretical Models, Faculty Excellence, Transfers, and Online and Distance Students. For a more comprehensive description of the tracks, please Download and Review the Call for Proposals. The National Symposium on Student Retention is distinguished from other conferences in that all papers presented at the symposium have gone through a multiple stage peer-review process and have been published in the conference proceedings. Authors submit abstracts on proposed papers, panels, tutorials. etc. Those abstracts are reviewed for the appropriateness of the topic, the method of information dissemination, and the proposed treatment of the research. If the abstract is accepted, the first author is contacted and invited to submit a paper for peer review. Only those papers which score sufficiently high in this process are accepted for publication and presentation at the conference. All accepted papers are considered for the annual CSRDE Best Practices Award, Institutional Research Leadership Award, and the Director's Award. In addition, poster submissions will be judged on site for the Best Poster Award. Over $3,000 in prizes will be awarded. For more detailed information on paper and proposal submission
