We are excited to announce an important update to our Pre-Conference Training Session scheduled for Saturday at the SWASAP 54th Annual Conference. The session has been officially designated as a Priority 6 Training Seminar, and we are pleased to share that this professional development opportunity will now be offered FREE OF CHARGE to all SWASAP members!

The Priority 6 Training Seminar is designed to equip TRIO project managers and new directors with essential knowledge and tools for effective program management. This comprehensive, in-person training, which also includes ongoing access to training resources and participant follow-up via the RISE Platform, will provide an invaluable foundation for both new and seasoned leaders.

Participants will engage with experts, collaborate with peers, and develop a personalized Blueprint for Action to strengthen program outcomes. Topics include foundational TRIO regulations, recordkeeping, financial aid processes, service delivery for diverse populations, and financial literacy.
