2026 Leadership Educators Institute

A partnership between NASPA, ACPA-College Student Educators International, and the National Clearinghouse for Leadership Programs (NCLP), LEI provides a unique opportunity for all professional levels within our field to engage in critical dialogue to promote positive sustainable change on their campuses. The institute creates a space for student affairs administrators, scholars, and practitioners to discuss and advance current leadership topics, such as modern leadership theories and models, innovative and inclusive curriculum and pedagogy, assessment and evaluation of leadership programs, future directions in leadership education and development, unique co-curricular program models, strategy and management of leadership program operations, and intersectional and interdisciplinary approaches to leadership education.
