Event Description
Join us on August 4, from 2:00-3:30 Mountain/3:00-4:30 Central
for a combined August webinar and RMASFAA Roundtable #6!
Attending a professional conference can be both exciting and overwhelming—but it can also be the start of meaningful connections, leadership opportunities, and career growth. Join the RMASFAA Training Committee and a panel of experienced financial aid professionals for an interactive 90-minute webinar and roundtable discussion designed to help you maximize your conference experience and discover the value of volunteer service.Get a preview of what’s in store at the Fargo conference, hear about featured sessions and events, and learn practical strategies for navigating the conference, networking with confidence, and making the most of your attendance. Whether you're an introvert, extrovert, or somewhere in between, you'll leave with tips for building connections and engaging in ways that feel authentic to you.
We'll also explore how volunteer involvement can accelerate professional development, expand your network, and create new leadership opportunities. Learn how to identify volunteer roles that align with your interests and goals, balance service with your professional responsibilities, and turn volunteer experiences into valuable career growth.
The session will feature a candid roundtable discussion with financial aid leaders who have served at the institutional, state, regional, and national levels. Panelists Joe Donlay (Director of Financial Aid at Colorado State University), Brenda Hicks (Director of Financial Aid at Southwestern College in Winfield, KS), and James Broscheit (Financial Aid Director at Montana State University in Bozeman, MT) along with representatives from the RMASFAA Training and Conference Committees, will share their experiences, lessons learned, and insights into how saying "yes" to volunteer opportunities shaped their careers and professional networks.
Whether you're attending your first RMASFAA conference or looking for new ways to get involved, you'll leave with practical advice, fresh perspectives, and the confidence to take the next step in your RMASFAA journey. Bring your questions—and your own experiences—to this interactive conversation!
