CAMMP Fire: Let’s Get Social!

CAMMP Fire gets social with a conversation about, you guessed it…social media! Sarah Huerta, the senior director of digital communications at University of Minnesota, will provide a social media 101 and Brett Winegarner, the director of communications at Texas Tech, will provide insight on engaging content. After the presentations, attendees will have the opportunity to chat, ask questions, and share ideas with the presenters and other CAMMPers.

Membership and Other Revenue
Presenters Lauren Norris (University of Maryland) and Haley Smith (University of Texas at Austin) will share projects they’ve launched in 2020 and beyond.

Virtual Content and Engagement
Presenters Keriann Espersen (Arizona State University) and Karissa Rodriguez (Valencia College) will present two unique ways their organizations have adapted to the needs of alumni in the virtual environment. Their topics will span from virtual events developed for the generations to alumni career placement assistance.
Tools for Efficiencies: Teams Small to Large
Alumni associations come in all different shapes and sizes, but the one thing we have in common is the need for collaboration. What tools are out there and what’s the best way to use them across your organization? How do you succeed when you wear many hats? Watch as our presenters share how they create cross-company efficiencies. Presented by Debbi Johanning (University of Kansas) and Russell Wagner (Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi).
Maximizing our Budgets
Presenters Alison Taylor (University of Central Arkansas) and Karl Miller-Lugo (University of Texas at San Antonio) discuss budget cuts and staff reductions that are unfortunately the current reality many of us are facing. How do we not only respond but thrive with less money and less staff? What should we prepare when gathering our recommendations for leadership? Our presenters will share strategies to overcome these obstacles and provide guidance to set your team up for success.
Membership Acquisition and Retention Strategies
Presenters Jesse Thill (NC State University) and Alicia Fodera (University of Maryland) to explore strategies to acquire new members and gain tips on how to keep your members coming back year after year. Both presenters have incorporated feedback from CAMMP peers to develop their current strategies. Join us to see what’s working (and what isn’t)!
Career Programming and Tools
We’re all looking for ways to offer more career and professional development opportunities to our alumni. Join presenters Erin Erwin (Indiana University) and Christina Cadang (UC-Davis) to learn how best to collaborate with central career services and to discover new ways to coach and provide benefits to your alumni.
