Thank you to our presenters, moderators, and attendees for making this a successful and engaging event! Session recordings will be available soon.
The American College Health Association is hosting our first ever virtual summit, COVID-19: Planning for Now, Building for the Future, on July 28-29, 2020, from 12:30-4:30 pm EDT. As we prepare to resume academic instruction, now is the time to think creatively about keeping our students, faculty, and staff physically and mentally healthy and what campus health and well-being looks like on the other side of COVID-19.
Join ACHA, industry experts, and your college health colleagues to delve into the many topics that must be considered when preparing for the fall, complete with valuable, actionable takeaways. By attending the summit, you'll be able to:
- Collaborate with other institutions during breakout sessions.
- Work through real-life scenarios in tabletop drills with similar-sized institutions.
- Gain access to recordings of the event to reinforce what you've learned and view breakout sessions.
The summit is powered by ACE Engage, a new peer-to-peer online learning platform created by American Council on Education (ACE) experts to help solve higher education leaders’ problems and transform higher education through collaborative, actionable strategies. ACE Engage is home to a community of leaders with a shared mission: to enhance student success and achieve institutional goals.
