Event Details

The 2024 Election is over. Now is the time for schools to build relationships with newly elected officials, strengthen existing relationships with incumbents, and/or work to persuade public officials who are critical of the sector.


Higher education and career schools are a heavily-regulated sector of the economy. Its important that all schools are working to educate government policy-makers on the importance of career education and our schools.


This webinar will focus on the following:


  • Review the results of the 2024 Election
  • Discuss the many reasons why it is important for all schools to earmark a portion of their time towards advocacy with public officials
  • Provide schools with multiple strategies and unique ways to build relationships with elected officials at the federal, state, and local levels of government
  • Discuss how to host lawmakers and elected officials on your campus
  • How to use IPEDS and other data sources to provide public officials with positive data on your school and the sector


Please join MAACS and our panel of guests from Lincoln Technical Institute, Shore Beauty School, and TEN Government Strategies for this informative and important webinar.
