(PRWEB) March 17, 2015

The League for Innovation has announced a call for proposals for the 2015 STEMtech conference, November 1-4, in Phoenix, Arizona. STEMtech and the University of Maryland University College’s Analytics Summit are joining forces to bring the best of STEM, analytics, big data, advanced technology, and learning management architecture at this newly redesigned professional development experience.

STEMtech’s innovative direction focuses on attracting additional community college and university participants and corporate partners while providing enhanced networking opportunities. More so, it is an opportunity for community college and university partners to create a shared, outcomes-based framework by which students transfer seamlessly and receive support at both institutions to ensure persistence.

This year’s event will take place at the Arizona Grand, an all-suite hotel nestled in a private desert oasis on the doorstep of the South Mountain Preserve.

STEMtech provides opportunities for colleagues to showcase model programs and share lessons learned through eight conference tracks:


Advanced Technology Systems and Learning Management Architecture
Using Analytics to Recruit, Retain, and Transition Students
Advances in E-Learning
Health and Science
Mathematics, Engineering, and Architecture
Manufacturing, Energy, Aerospace, and Agriculture
Integration of STEM and the Liberal Arts

Proposals for the following presentation formats are requested:

Concurrent sessions are one-hour breakout sessions featuring a successful practice, innovative program, or timely issue related to a conference track.
Roundtable Discussions are one-hour sessions that afford a personal and interactive setting for the exploration of key issues related to a conference track.
Poster Sessions are one-hour visual displays among which conference participants move freely.

League Alliance and other community college representatives are invited to submit a proposal. League Corporate Partners are encouraged to participate as presenters and exhibitors.

Presenters are required to register and pay the conference registration fee. Honoraria and expense reimbursement are not provided by the League.

The deadline for submitting proposals is Friday, May 22, 2015.
