GPACAC’s Mentorship Program brings together colleagues with varied levels of experience. By creating intentional 1:1 mentor/mentee pairings, affiliate members will form meaningful connections that contribute to the collaborative spirit of our profession, providing professional growth for participants. You will build relationships and mutually share talents, skills, and experiences that are valuable to our day-to-day work. 

Approved in September 2020, NACAC's "Guide to Ethical Practice in Admission" reflects the association's long-standing commitment to conduct among professionals who support students in the college transition process from secondary school to post-secondary education or in the transfer process between post-secondary institutions. If you have questions about the GEPCA or ethical practice in admissions for our affiliate please contact GPACAC past-president, Bri Vander Vorst.

Special interest groups are a way for specific and smaller subsets of colleagues to come together to network, collaborate, and share amongst each other. SIG leaders will host virtual meetings on a regular basis.
