2025 UNI Professional Development Conference

On May 29, 2025 from 9:00 am to 3:30 pm the first UNI Professional Development Conference was held in the Schindler Education Center.

Conference Theme: The Six Degrees of T.C. - Our theme is the Six Degrees of T.C., comparable to the six degrees of Kevin Bacon/six degrees of separation. This theme was selected to emphasize the importance of connections within our institution and, if you're looking for collaboration, you can easily find someone to assist in fewer than six acquaintance links apart. Throughout the conference we will have opportunities to connect and collaborate in addition to learning and celebrating the completion of the academic year together.
