2024 Business Partner Sponsorship Research Survey

Overall, I am satisfied with the Sponsorship Opportunities presented by PASFAA.*

Yes
No

DIRECTORS’ DAY

Based on survey responses of PASFAA’s Financial Aid Directors this initiative will be introduced in 2024-25. The goal is to provide Directors or their designees the opportunity; to network with their peers, share best practices and attend several group sessions led by industry experts on “hot topics”.

This event will be held at ONLY one site annually and will alternate between “eastern Pennsylvania” and “western Pennsylvania”. The 2024-25 event will be in eastern Pennsylvania.

To determine if this event would provide business partners the opportunity to interact with a different audience than Spring Trainings, the 2023 registration lists were reviewed: o West PA event - 14 attendees were directors (17%). o East PA event – 12 attendees were directors (12%).

Would you like to be involved with this event through some type of sponsorship/exhibiting opportunities? Check all that apply. (You'll still need to officially "sign up" later.)*

Yes sign me up.
Sign me up if it is part of a current sponsorship opportunity. (I understand this could result in an increase to the current sponsorship costs.)
Sign me up if it is an a la carte opportunity.
