A space for advisers to connect, share, and support each other

CMA Confabs are informal, one-hour, interactive webinars for advisers and educators in college media. Always free to CMA members, Confabs occur at 5 PM EST on the third Wednesday of every month outside convention months. They are facilitated by experienced professionals, researchers and advisers addressing a vast array of topics for every form of media, from organizational culture and legal issues to emerging trends, tech tools and beyond.
