Sponsorship Opportunities for WICHE Academic Partnerships
WICHE’s Academic Partnerships incorporate two interstate membership groups in the western region.
- The Forum is comprised of higher education leaders at four-year institutions
- The Alliance is comprised of higher education leaders at two-year institutions
We bring together senior academic leaders, providing direct dialogue on current issues facing individual institutions. Our highly rated in-person conferences and online forums lend themselves to constant idea generation around pressing issues while also facilitating professional development. Your contribution will fund vital conversations and idea-sharing amongst leaders in higher education for a full year (July 1-June 30) including a well-attended annual meeting.
Sponsor both Forum and Alliance for a 10% discount!
