Giving Opportunities

TICUA provides a variety of sponsorship opportunities to interested parties on a first-come, first-served basis throughout the year.  Below is a description of each of the sponsorship opportunities available through the year.  If you are interested in sponsoring any of these, please contact Susanna Baxter at 615/242-6400 ext. 203.

Professional Development

Throughout the year, TICUA brings together various senior level affinity groups for one- and two-day professional development opportunities.  These meetings are crucial as it allows our members to share best practices, hear from regionally and nationally known speakers, and create and nurture relationships crucial to the success of future collaborative initiatives.  Examples of the types of groups we bring together include, chief financial officers, chief academic officers, chief enrollment officers, physical plant directors, information technology directors, library directors, bursars/controllers and more!  Please click here for a list of the meetings we have planned for the next 12 months.
