SUMMARY:21-Day Disability Justice Challenge
DESCRIPTION:Join the Coalition for Disability\, ACPA–College Student Educators International\, and others like you in building a more anti-ableist world by participating in the 21-Day Disability Justice Challenge. \nStarting April 13\, 2026\, participants will receive emails every Monday\, Tuesday\, and Thursday with suggested readings\, podcasts\, videos\, reflections\, and activities to deepen personal understanding and connections. The Challenge concludes on June 1\, 2026.\nNote: The Challenge will not run on May 25 in observance of Memorial Day. As a result\, it has been extended by one day and concludes just after the end of Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage month\, Jewish American Heritage month\, Mental Health Awareness month\, and Military Appreciation month (May). \nListen\, learn\, reflect\, and act—whether individually\, with coworkers\, or across your organization—to help create a more just and inclusive society. \nWe thank Food Solutions New England for inspiring this initiative. In 2014\, they adapted Dr. Eddie Moore and Debby Irving’s work into the first 21-Day Racial Equity Challenge. We’ve built on their format to center disability justice. We also acknowledge the United Way of Battle Creek and Kalamazoo Region for their example of a 21-Day Disability Justice Challenge. \nRegistration Link

Specifically\, you’ll learn… \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Week 1 | Digging DeeperOnce you have a basic understanding of your Talent Themes and how they’re impacting your life\, it’s time to go deeper. You’ll break down the results of your whole CliftonStrengths 34 Report. You’ll also get a better understanding of how your Talent Themes are showing up so you can better manage them\, so you can be more effective\, productive\, and have a better sense of wellbeing.\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Week 4 | Team Dynamics\nOne of the most powerful ways to use CliftonStrengths is by developing a well-rounded and high-functioning team. In this module\, you’ll learn how to better maximize your team’s energy by delegating and creating complementary partnerships. You’ll better understand how to use your collective Talent Themes to be more productive.\n\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Week 2 | The 34 Talent Themes\nOne of the biggest obstacles for many people in implementing a Strengths-based approach is feeling overwhelmed about all the Talent Themes.

You’ll also learn about the Four Domains that will help you better focus your energy and set the stage to build more effective teams.\n\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Week 6 | Strengths-Based Conflict Resolution\n\nConflict seems to be everywhere these days. Even the best teams will have conflict at some point. Unfortunately\, most people aren’t comfortable with conflict and would rather put things off instead of addressing the issue. You’ll learn how to better navigate conflict yourself and be better able to mediate conflict between others.\n\n\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Week 7 | Integrating Strengths Within Your Team or Organization\nAnother challenge many folks face is exactly how to move past the basics to truly create a Strengths-based culture.

SUMMARY:Summer 2026 Supervisor Strengths Institute
DESCRIPTION:Supervisor Strengths InstituteWEDNESDAYS at 2:00pm ET from may 27 – july 22\, 2026\n				registration is open\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Learn to become a more effective supervisor and show up authentically in your leadership role. You’ll gain skills around how to feel balanced\, aligned\, and able to genuinely enjoy your work while having the energy to do your best work. Strengths University understands the challenges\, the frustrations\, and the joys of leading a team. We want to help you manage the stress and chaos\, so you can better lead your team\, support your students\, and have more balance in your life. \nMore information on this Institute can be found on the Strengths University website! \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				The Supervisor Strengths Institute combines asynchronous learning with group and individual Success and Accountability calls to give participants multiple opportunities to absorb\, discuss\, and implement what they’re learning. We use the CliftonStrengths framework\, to empower participants to both develop their talents and customize the content based on those talents. We also use a wholistic approach\, because supervisors are more than their supervisor role. How you show up in the world\, impacts how you show up as a supervisor. \nParticipants in the Institute will get… \n\n8-Weeks of Online Learning Modules\, including weekly worksheets and reflection prompts\n9 Group Success and Accountability Calls with your Institute cohort (60-Minutes each)\n1 Individual Success and Accountability Call (30-Minutes)\nThe CliftonStrengths Report for Managers – featuring your Top 10 Talent Themes\n\nDuring the Institute\, we’ll cover a variety of topics\, all designed to transform you from a stressed and overwhelmed supervisor\, into a more effective and empowered leader to your team. Specifically\, we’ll dive into… \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				During the Institute\, we’ll cover a variety of topics\, all designed to transform you from a stressed and overwhelmed supervisor\, into a more effective and empowered leader to your team. Specifically\, we’ll dive into… \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Energy ManagementDid you know energy is your most valuable resource? Yet\, we often waste our energy working on things that aren’t productive – or in ways that are productive. That leaves you feeling exhausted at work and at home. In this first week\, we’ll talk about how to better protect your energy\, so you can use it for the things that are most important to you.\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Discovering your authentic leadership style\nThe greatest leaders aren’t good at everything. They focus their energy on their strengths and surround themselves with folks who excel in other areas. You’ll discover your own authentic leadership style\, one that stems from your unique talents. Once you know who you are as a leader\, you can better manage your energy and prioritize your time.\n\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Understanding your Strengths\nYour talents impact how you interact with the world. When you use your talents productively\, they can drive you and your team to new levels of success. But what most people don’t know is your talents can just as easily show up as weaknesses. You’ll learn how to better manage your talents\, so your more effective and productive.\n\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				coaching your team\n\nEmployees want a coach. Developing a system to consistently coach your team is one of the most effective things you can do as a supervisor. Coaching improves team performance and productivity. You’ll learn how to coach your team\, so you can help them focus their energy on their talents and give them opportunities for development.\n\n\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Stress & Self-Care\nSupervisors experience more stress than the folks they supervise. Left unchecked\, it will negatively impact how you show up as a supervisor. Self-care isn’t just a buzzword\, it’s crucial for your success and wellbeing. You’ll learn the real impact of stress and how to develop a daily self-care practice that will allow you to be more effective.\n\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Performance Management\n\nOne of the most challenging parts of a supervisor’s job is managing your team’s performance. Unfortunately\, managing performance can be stressful when you don’t have an effective system. You’ll learn how to set clear expectations and hold folks accountable\, whether it’s celebrating successes or dealing with failure.\n\n\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				managing change\nOne of the things we hear from everyone is “there’s been a lot of change here.” Change is inevitable\, and often stressful. Throughout the Institute\, you’ll discover ways you and your team can improve. This week\, you’ll learn to roll out those changes in a way that minimizes stress to you and your team and increases your chance of success.\n\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				implementing change\n\nThe last week of the Institute is focused on action. You’ll review what you’ve learned in the first seven weeks\, then develop your path forward\, with consideration to the specific needs of your institution. That way when the Institute is finished\, you can move forward\, focusing on exactly what you need to do to get the results you want.\n\n\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Registration Rates\nEach attendee of the Supervisor Strengths Institute must register separately\, but team rates are available.

When we think about facilitation\, we know the right facilitator can make all the difference. You know this to be true if you remember the last bad facilitator you had. So\, we have created content to help you deliver the best for your audience. First\, as your guides\, we have scoured through Mike’s Ph.D. research and are sharing the top 12 things participants need from facilitators and the results are fascinating!

Finally\, we will teach you how to read your audience when they make a face that stresses you out. \nAs we share\, you never went to camp to watch videos about canoeing\, horseback riding\, and the ropes course.

It offers a balance of instruction and hands-on experience designed to ensure attendees leave with the assessment skills and knowledge necessary to develop and execute quality assessment plans on their campuses. \nWhether you are brand new to assessment\, taking on new responsibilities in your individual unit\, or charged with developing a division-wide plan for assessment\, this is the answer for your professional development needs! \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				INSTITUTE TRACKS AND FEATURES\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Assessment Institute attendees have the opportunity to select their track when they register for the Institute\, making the experience educationally catered to each registrants professional journey. Tracks help guide attendees session selections at the Institute based on their focus area or role with assessment. \n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Programmer and Emerging Assessment Practitioner Track\nSessions will be focused on building assessment knowledge\, confidence\, and skills. Specifically\, this track focuses on the following aspects of the assessment cycle: (a) writing goals\, outcomes\, and objectives\, (b) designing theory- and evidence-based strategies\, (c) implementing those strategies alongside a measurement plan\, and (d) interpreting and using results for improvement plans. This track will also cover quick measurements that student affairs educators can implement to inform improvement of the current student experience. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Who should choose this track?\n				You work directly with students\, programs\, and the day-to-day work of student affairs\, and you know assessment could be making that work stronger. This track is built for coordinators\, program directors\, and student affairs educators who are ready to build foundational assessment skills and put them to work immediately. If you are newer to assessment or looking to develop greater confidence and consistency in your practice\, this is your track. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Experienced Assessment Practitioner Track\nSessions will be focused on expanding existing assessment knowledge\, confidence\, and skills for current or aspiring student affairs assessment specialists. Specifically\, this track focuses on the methodological process: (a) designing a data strategy and measurement plan\, (b) collaborating with student affairs educators to implement that measurement plan alongside strategies\, and (c) analyzing data and reporting results. This track will focus on measurements that departments and divisions can leverage to improve student experiences and share impact stories. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Who Should Choose this Track?\n				You have been doing assessment work long enough to know the foundations\, and you are ready to go deeper. This track is designed for assessment specialists\, institutional researchers\, and student affairs professionals who lead or support assessment across departments and divisions. If your work centers on measurement strategy\, data analysis\, and translating findings into action\, this track will sharpen your edge. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Department and Divisional Leader Track\nThe act of assessment is more than measurement – it requires leaders to take an active role. Therefore\, these sessions will focus on leading the assessment process from a big-picture perspective for department and divisional leaders. Specifically\, this track will advance knowledge\, confidence\, and skills related to: (a) strategic planning\, (b) identifying opportunities for data-collection collaboration\, (c) data-informed reflection and decision-making\, and (d) storytelling. This track will focus on assessment as a leadership process for quality improvement efforts and impact storytelling. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Who Should Choose This Track?\n				Assessment does not happen without leaders who understand its value and actively create the conditions for it to thrive. This track is for seasoned assessment department directors\, AVPs\, chiefs of staff\, and VPSAs who shape strategy\, culture\, and decision-making at the department or division level. If your role is less about running assessments and more about building the environment in which good assessment can flourish\, this track was designed with you in mind. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Registration Information\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Scholarship Opportunity\nWe believe the Student Affairs Assessment Institute should be accessible to professionals at every stage of their career\, regardless of financial circumstance.

SUMMARY:ACPA2GO: Disrupting White Noise: Challenging Beliefs About Race on Campus
DESCRIPTION:Disrupting White Noise: Challenging Beliefs About Race on Campus\n26 June 2026 // 2:00PM – 3:00PM ET\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Join Zak Foste and Lauren Irwin as they highlight key insights from their new book\, Disrupting White Noise: Challenging Beliefs About Race on Campus (Harvard Education Press). Foste and Irwin argue that many colleges fundamentally misunderstand white students in two key and related ways: (1) White students are often treated as if they have no knowledge of the racial world\, and that they simply need exposure to new ideas and perspectives about race and racism. Such assumptions treat white students as empty vessels while discounting the lifetime of racial socialization they have experienced. (2) Many campuses fall short of disrupting white students’ pre-college racial learning\, but actually reproduce many of the same messages and contexts students experienced before college. Foste and Irwin spotlight key practices in spaces like housing\, leadership programs\, and classroom life to both illustrate these patterns and offer ideas for disrupting the ‘white noise.’ often reorganizes and extends it through everyday practices in spaces like housing\, co-curricular programs\, and classroom life. \n			\n				Register Now\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\nACPA Individual Member – $10\nACPA International Member – $5\nNon-Member – $20\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Presented by:\n\nLauren IrwinUniversity of Tennessee\, Knoxville\n\nZak FosteUniversity of Kansas\n\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				PROFESSIONAL COMPETENCIES\n\nSocial Justice and Inclusion (SJI) \n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				In order to qualify for member rates for an ACPA2GO webinar\, membership with ACPA must be valid through the scheduled webinar date.
