Information and resources about our annual AHEAD conference.

Enjoy a Night Out with the Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards!

Oriole Park at Camden Yards, the beautiful baseball-only facility in downtown Baltimore, became the official home of the Orioles on April 6, 1992. Camden Yards, the ninth oldest stadium in the U.S., was the first of “retro” major league ballparks constructed in the 90’s and remains the most highly praised of ballparks.

Might You Need a Roommate?

AHEAD will collect a list of individuals who are interested in securing a roommate for the Conference and will distribute that list June 3, 2013, to all who have expressed an interest. Individuals will then be responsible for contacting each other, and arranging shared housing.

If you would like to be included in the roommate referral program, please email the following information to Jane Johnston, Program Coordinator.

Coordinated, Comprehensive Conference Programs for New and Seasoned Professionals

Building on last year’s successful OUT OF THE BOX! Program, AHEAD’s Board and Standing Committee on Professional Development are excited to offer two tracks of conference sessions this year:

AHEAD Start:
Foundational information for the new professional

OUT OF THE BOX II:
Provocative conversations to challenge seasoned professionals and push our thinking beyond the status quo

Regarding Universal Access and Environmental Responsibility

AHEAD continues to open new doors and set new examples for Conference implementation that elevate universal access, environmental responsibility, and unparalleled professional development for those involved in the intersection of disability and higher education.
