In Search of Best Practices - A NASFAA Symposium provides you with an opportunity to delve into national topics of concern, learn from the experiences of others, and share ideas on current issues facing senior aid administrators today.

In 2008, the topic of the Symposium is "Professionalism and Ethics." Participants will examine what each term means and the relationship between them within the context of the various roles financial aid administrators perform and the various constituents they must serve.

The Symposium will include an in-depth exploration and discussion of the responsibility financial aid administrators have to balance institutional goals with student needs, the NASFAA Statement of Ethical Principles and Code of Conduct for Institutional Financial Aid Professionals, as well as current issues and situations in which the professionalism and ethics of financial aid administrators are called into question. Through an in-depth examination of these issues, participants will gain a better understanding of the ethical dilemmas facing not only the profession but also situations they encounter every day. Through the exchange of ideas, participants will develop a better understanding of how to best respond to these professional challenges.
