Past Programs

VAMAP typically offers two professional programs each year, a two-day conference in the fall and a spring one-day meeting. These programs are designed to bring planning, finance, and institutional research practitioners from across Virginia together to offer presentations and discuss topics of mutual professional interest. They also provide an opportunity for VAMAP members to meet, listen to, and interact with invited speakers and presenters from across the state, region, and nation.
