CE Conference

The 9th Collegiate Empowerment® Conference

Friday, April 1st, 2022
@ 1-5pm eastern via Zoom
$995 for 25 participants!

IT’S FOR STUDENTS, ADVISORS, ADMINISTRATION, & FACULTY. IT’S FOR WHOEVER YOU ARE!

You know Collegiate Empowerment; it’s more than a company name. It’s a movement for you and your campus community. It’s about Helping College Students, Families, and Higher Ed Professionals Get What They Want & Need. And now, it’s a conference!

Join the Collegiate Empowerment Conference for just $995 for up to 25 participants! No April Fool’s here. You can really enroll 25 participants from campus for only $995 because let’s be honest: we’re here to make a big impact, your students need empowerment education now more than ever, and there’s never enough budget to go around. That’s just $40 per student!

WE’RE LIVING THROUGH YOUR NEXT DEFINING MOMENT RIGHT NOW!

For many people, college spans the most complicated years of their lives: choosing a lifetime career, selecting social circles, embracing new challenges, joining clubs and orgs, making decisions about alcohol and sex, balancing social media influences with real world facts, managing budgets and meal cards, going abroad, tackling internships and volunteer opportunities, planning summer breaks, and figuring our what work-life balance really means. And that was all before the pandemic!

College is complicated; life is complicated. Your students need a plan and a path for [1] personal development, [2] leadership development, and [3] campus impact. We’re not promising to provide that in just a few hours in a single day…but we can make sure they feel inspired, empowered, prepared, and cared for so that they can more easily develop their plan and navigate their path.

Welcome to The Collegiate Empowerment Conference…on Zoom!

With this digital format, you don’t have to leave your home, pay for travel and lodging, find child or pet care, and you still get the incredible benefits of attending this energizing and enlightening experience that guides you and your students in making a powerful and permanent impact.

This is not some webinar. With 27 years of proven and practical experience and results, join Collegiate Empowerment and get ready to energize and get ready for big things, connect with others just like you, and engage more deeply in what’s truly most important to you. This isn’t about motivation; it’s about having the knowledge, concepts, and tools to ACT!

This was my most favorite and memorable keynote. I sat at the table in front of the podium and during the time of reflection, I became so emotional about who I want to be and who I am now. This workshop has changed my outlook on myself and my ability to lead others. I felt more confident after this keynote.

AN INTEGRATED EXPERIENCE

The digital Collegiate Empowerment Conference provides a fresh take on the typical conference experience where participants travel from one session to the next without any connection between them. The focus here, instead, is on integrated and connected sessions within an expansive context where each is focused on providing clarity and direction to help students (and professionals) feel empowered to get what they want and need. Throughout the experience, students will attend feature sessions followed by a block of sessions to choose from. Professionals will also have their own track to focus on what they want and need. The conference will conclude by bringing everything full-circle and integrating material from the entire afternoon.

LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT IS LIKE TAKING A SHOWER…if you only do it once, you’ll stink. Our goal is to help you take more showers together. (Okay, maybe that’s over-the-top, but we all need more leadership development at any stage in the game.) This conference is intended to complement the standard nuts and bolts training that you cover with your students on campus.
