New England Consortium of Academic Support Professionals (NECASP) Conference
Friday December 13, 2019

NECASP will be holding its annual one-day conference and has designated time for presentations. Our
topic this year is “Admission to Admission: Getting students the tools they need to build the bridge
from day 1 to swearing-in.” We will gather in Vermont to share and explore ideas with ASP colleagues
on how to prepare students for admission to the bar and all that entails (academics, bar passage,
character and fitness, and professionalism) beginning from their admission to law school. We welcome
a broad range of proposals – from presenters in the New England Region and beyond – and at various
stages of completion – from idea to fruition. If you wish to present, the proposal process is as follows:
- Submit your proposal by October 14, 2019 , via email to Joe Brennan at jbrennan@vermontlaw.edu
- Proposals may be submitted as a Word document or as a PDF
- Proposals must include the following:
- Name and title of presenter
- Law School
- Address, email address, and telephone number for presenter
- Title
- If a scholarly work in progress, an abstract no more than 500 words
- Media or computer presentation needs
- As noted above, proposals are due on Monday, October 14, 2019.
