Collaborative Effort Brings College Panhellenic and IFC Officer Training to Regional ConferencesThe National Panhellenic Conference (NPC), North-American Interfraternity Conference (NIC) and four regional interfraternal leadership programs—including Northeast Greek Leadership Association—are partnering to bring council officer training to students in 2017. In its pilot year, new Interfraternity Council (IFC) Academy curriculum will be facilitated at four regional conferences and new College Panhellenic Academy curriculum will be facilitated at two conferences. Programming will emphasize interfraternal leadership, establish a community mindset and goals, and take a deep dive into officer-specific training. Program collaborators are focused on recruiting seasoned content experts to deliver training. NPC will host its third annual College Panhellenic Academy in late January in addition to the regional program pilots. “By joining efforts and bringing our Academy programming to different parts of the country, we have a greater opportunity to provide current and consistent education to a broader set of student leaders,” said Dani Weatherford, NPC executive director. “Additionally, we hope this collaboration can model how fraternity and sorority communities can work together to solve challenges faced on many campuses today.” “This coalition is another example of the industry coming together to make a better future for all students,” said Judson Horras, NIC president & CEO. “While we are focused on College Panhellenic and IFC in year one, our vision is to continue to refine the program to include all fraternity and sorority councils in the future.”
Organization leaders are excited to introduce the new officer education at each of their regional events. Northeast Greek Leadership Association (NGLA) Annual Conference “This collaboration is important because it helps us elevate the training available to our students and fosters community-wide change conversations across the country,” said Emily Perlow, NGLA chairman. “Such partnership helps build collaboration between councils, empowering leaders to steward change and place the values of their organizations at the forefront of decision making.” Association of Fraternal Leadership & Values (AFLV) Central and West Southeastern Interfraternity Conference (SEIFC) Leadership Academy
