The Doctoral Leadership Initiative, a 501(3)c organization, and Bridges Consulting and Associates, LLC will host its first annual Doctoral Leadership Conference, themed "In Pursuit of Doctoral Excellence." Our vision is to create paths between scholars, disciplines, and academia while serving as an invaluable connection between higher education and the community to break this barrier. The conference will be a premier event for school faculty, administrators, professionals, undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral students throughout the United States. One of the most important aspects of this conference is the level of networking, workshops, professional development, and scholarship opportunities available to the attendees.

The purpose of this conference is to provide guidance and intellectual stimulation for doctoral students who acquire assistance in academic development. Our mission is to ensure that students have the support and resources to succeed and achieve their doctoral degrees. In providing these opportunities, we would like to honor professionals in an array of disciplines in the field of business and education who are bridge builders, scholars in the doctoral community, authors, and entrepreneurs and demonstrate leadership, dedication, and passion for student achievement.

General admission to attend the conference is $400. This includes admission for the conference, networking social (Thursday), workshops and breakfast and lunch for the days of the conference. This does not include tickets to the Honoring Excellence (All Black) Black-Tie Formal Gala. Please select from the "Add-ons" list for Gala tickets.

BCA, LLC always appreciate donations and encourage sponsorships to help provide better resources to students. Please view our "Add-ons" list for exhibitor and sponsorship packages.
