Conference Registration

Registration Fees

Why is the conference free? We believe that budgetary reductions of travel money and professional development funds should not be a barrier to increased instructional effectiveness and student learning. Thus, for the fourth year in a row, the Conference on Higher Education Pedagogy will not be charging a registration fee. The free registration is made possible by the generous support of Virginia Tech’s Vice President and Dean for Undergraduate Education; academic sponsors including Virginia Tech’s colleges, departments, centers, and administrators; and corporate sponsors who recognize the value of innovative and quality pedagogy in higher education. Learn more about how to support the conference through sponsorship or see the list of 2011 corporate and academic sponsors.

What is included? Attendees receive printed conference proceedings, continental breakfast, continuous break, and lunch each day. The conference includes research and practice sessions, poster sessions, opening and closing keynote speakers, a reception, and meeting amenities.

Do I still need to register? Yes. Maintaining an accurate record of conference attendance through registration allows us to (a) communicate with participants in advance of the conference with specific conference details, (b) conduct a post-conference evaluation with the purpose of increasing the efficacy of the conference, (c) highlight the breadth and depth of the conference to potential sponsors and partners, and (d) report on the progress of the conference to institutional stakeholders.
