This is your last chance to submit your presentations for consideration for NNECERAPPA and SNEAPPA 2025 Conference! Final deadline is Wednesday December 4th.
Event Date: March 11 – 12, 2025
Audience
The approximately 300 attendees of the conference are educational facility managers and business partners from Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. Educational sessions are typically 60 minutes in length and presenters should include time for questions.
Potential Topics/Areas of Interest
The expectations to reach the finish line of projects, personnel planning, and maintenance of a safe, clean, and positive environment for our campus communities have remained the same and have never been more fast-paced.
The challenges of the built environment at the educational institutions our members represent are changing rapidly and consistently. In response to those needs, our business partners are quickly updating their products and services in response.
Collaboration, learning, and sharing are the fundamentals our organization runs with. As we move forward with our responsibilities, change, growth, and information must be at our fingertips in order to keep up with the competition and provide the best levels of services for our institutions.
The 2025 NNECERAPPA & SNEAPPA Host Committee is also interested in whether your presentations will fit into any of the following suggested topics:
• Maintenance & Skilled Trades (includes HVAC, Electrical, etc.)
• Custodial/Grounds
• Administration, Staffing, HR, & Leadership
• Capital Construction & Planning
Selection Process
Presentations from NNECERAPPA and SNEAPPA member institutions and non-proprietary presentations from business partners are welcomed. Joint offerings that showcase effective partnerships between businesses and institutional members are encouraged. The Professional Development Committee will review submissions and selection will be based on the following;
• Overall Quality
• Timeliness of the topic to facilities management
• Relevance to the conference theme
• Qualification(s) of the presenter(s)
• Innovative ideas
Learning Units and Professional Development Credits
Although attendees typically seek topics of interest to them personally or to their employer; they may also be seeking presentations that provide them with continuing education credits in various disciplines, including but not limited to architecture (AIA credits) and Green Building Certification Institute, LEED Professional Credential Maintenance Program Credits. Presentations and topics that can or may provide credits in one or more of these categories should be identified.
Checkboxes are provided to indicate if the presentation is already approved for continuing education credits, or if the presenter feels their presentation is applicable and would like to work with the Professional Development Committee to submit it for educational credits. NNECERAPPA is a registered AIA/CES provider. Selected presentations will be submitted for educational credits as applicable.
