Prospect Development Conference Planning Committee (CPC)

Charge/Responsibility:
In accordance with established bylaws, policies and procedures, the Prospect Development Conference Planning Committee develops and coordinates the annual conference to ensure programming accomplishes Apra’s objective to provide superior educational opportunities that appeal to our diverse membership, drives registration revenues, and meets the high expectations of conference attendees. 

Term of Service:
The Chair and all members of the Prospect Development Conference Planning Committee will serve a one year term, typically commencing August 1 through July 31.  Terms of Service may be adjusted annually to align with dates of the Conference. If possible, the individual named Chair of the subsequent year’s conference (e.g., 2022 if the current year is 2021) is recommended to serve on the committee for continuity and breadth of experience. 

The committee will typically meet monthly for one hour via Zoom for the year-long term of the committee.  Additional time will likely be required to complete assigned actions, e.g., to finalize curriculum, confirm speakers, review presentations, etc., and averages between 4-6 additional hours per month.
