Join student affairs and higher education colleagues on a journey equipping you to lead organizations toward a curricular approach to learning for all on your campus at the Institute on the Curricular Approach (ICA)! This learning experience is dynamic and valuable. Participants will be able to explore how to lead, design, and implement a curricular approach. ICA Faculty will offer learning opportunities including large group keynotes, smaller sequenced sessions, faculty consultations, institutional showcases, and more. Wherever you are in your journey individually and organizationally toward a departmental or divisional curricular approach, this institute is a straight-forward way to obtain clear direction from higher education and student affairs professionals experienced with a curricular approach.

INSTITUTE FEATURES

This learning experience is an institute and not a conference. Sessions are organized and sequenced to meet the needs of professionals and organizations at different places in their journey. Each session is also sequenced with learning outcomes to create an integrated, developmentally sequenced, experience for the participants.

TEAM REGISTRATION

Consistently, some of the best feedback we receive from participants is from those who attended as members of an institutional team. While individual attendance is perfectly fine, if you can register as a team, we encourage it so you can learn together in real time and build or advance your Curricular Approach together.

All individuals registered using Team Rates must have an active ACPA individual membership through 22 October 2025. An audit will be performed to ensure that all individuals registered utilizing Team Rates are ACPA members.

BOOK YOUR HOTEL!

Reserve your room at the DoubleTree by Hilton Washington DC – Crystal City to ensure you secure our group rate! Rooms are available starting at $259/night until our room block fills or 29 September 2025.

PLEASE NOTE

In order to qualify for member rates for the ACPA’s Institute on the Curricular Approach, membership with ACPA must be valid through 22 October 2025. You must have your own individual membership. ACPA Members who purchase an Institute on the Curricular Approach Registration understand their membership needs to be active through 22 October 2025. If it is not active prior to the start of the Institute on the Curricular Approach you will not be provided with your Institute on the Curricular Approach Event credential unless you renew your membership or pay the difference between the non-member and member registration cost.

Registrations can be paid by check, VISA, MasterCard, Discover, or American Express. All fees must be prepaid. Purchase orders are not accepted. Refunds will be given for cancellations, received in writing at ACPA by 19 September 2025. Registrations can also be withdrawn by registrants using the event registration system through 19 September 2025. After 19 September 2025 there are no refunds. ACPA reserves the right to charge a service fee of US$50 for returned checks. Registrations are non-transferable. The conference may be cancelled or postponed due to insufficient enrollment or other unforeseen circumstances. In this case, the fees will be fully refunded; however, ACPA will not be responsible for other additional costs, charges or expenses, including cancellation/change charges assessed by airlines and/or travel agencies.
