EDUCAUSE Young Professionals Advisory Committee

The EDUCAUSE Young Professionals Advisory Committee (YPAC) advises the EDUCAUSE president/CEO and is made up of younger professionals and emerging leaders in the EDUCAUSE community. The perspectives and priorities of younger professionals are crucial to the future of EDUCAUSE. This committee provides an opportunity to give voice to this key demographic, helping EDUCAUSE become an even more balanced, inclusive, and responsive association. The committee’s charter is available here.

To engage with younger professionals and emerging leaders, see also the Young Professionals Community Group and Young Professionals Slack Team.
