The ACPA26 Convention Team is excited to welcome you to Baltimore, Maryland for ACPA26 from 30 March – 2 April 2026. 

ACPA26 will be a space of learning and growth which also centers the current state of higher education. At ACPA26, we encourage attendees to: 

Be More Anchored. To be grounded in our roots, true to our core values, and unwavering in our purpose.

Be More Anchored symbolizes our strong commitment to the foundational values of higher education, while continuing to drive innovation and progress during times of change and transformation. Anchoring emphasizes our responsibility to engage directly with the community and the city of Baltimore, honoring the history and future of the physical space. Be More Anchored calls for individuals and institutions to be intentional in their leadership and deeply connected to their values, as they shape the future of higher education.
