Best Practices Symposium

“Teaming Up:  Working Together for a Strong Learning Community Program”

We are currently developing the program for the 2025 Best Practices Symposium, held on Friday, April 4 at Waubonsee Community College in Sugar Grove, IL

Institutions may submit teams [a minimum of five individuals] that would work during the symposium for one or two two-hour sessions on a topic of their choice.  CILC will provide each team with a facilitator who will work with a team leader in advance of the symposium and with the team at the symposium to help that team in achieving its target outcome.  Each team would pay a $100 fee toward compensation of its facilitator, in addition to the regular individual symposium registration fee.  Team members would be encouraged to attend symposium sessions outside of their team’s work hours.

Individuals would be encouraged to submit proposals for other symposium sessions, either as workshops or other formats under the general symposium theme.  Of particular interest would be proposals highlighting what is particularly successful at their institution that they would like to share with others.

Finally, individuals will be encouraged to suggest session topics to CILC that they would like to have scheduled that they, as attendees, would find particularly useful to them or to their institution.  Submitted ideas would help in the construction of the full symposium schedule.
