ArSAA Spring Drive-In
The annual Spring Drive-In Workshop is an excellent opportunity for professional development, continuing education, networking, and thought-provoking conversations with professionals across the state of Arkansas. Intentionally designed to be a smaller venue than a full conference, the Drive-In was created as a chance for all attendees to be a part of the vital discussions happening in the field of higher education today.
The 6th annual Spring Drive-In will be held April 23-24, 2020.
