Affiliation with NACADA

Professional Advisers Council has been an Allied Member of the National Academic Advising Association since 2016.

As an organization that is an allied member of the National Academic Advising Association (NACADA), our bylaws and mission are complementary to NACADA’s overall goals and values. NACADA is the global community for academic advising and our members participate in regional, annual, and international conferences through NACADA each year as well as various other professional development opportunities. Each year we pay dues to NACADA and file to renew our allied membership. As allied members, we work in cooperation with NACADA, its regions, and other allied members to offer joint programming and connection to resources.
