Please consider submitting a proposal on an innovation in your department/work you've done in your department, highlighting new or creative ideas that other departments can learn from and apply in their own institutions. Through the Innovations Showcase, we hope to capture and share new or creative ideas that other departments can learn from and apply in their own institutions across any of a department's mission areas or operations.
The ADFM Conference Planning Committee is especially interested in considering Innovation Showcases on the following topics:
- Artificial Intelligence
- Wellness (what are departments doing to promote faculty and staff wellness?)
- DEI
- Managing organizational change
We anticipate that the Innovation Showcase sessions will take place on Wednesday (2/24) or Friday (2/26) of the conference.
Deadline to Apply: September 7, 2026
Please note: If you are selected to present in an Innovation Showcase, you will be required to register for the conference.
ADFM Staff will notify applicants of their application status by October 9, 2026.
Submit an Innovation Showcase here!
The topics for these discussion tables can be specific (e.g. something you are doing in your department that you want to share), general (e.g. open discussion of a topic), or focused on networking. As a facilitator of the discussion topic, you would host two separate groups, 45 minutes allotted for each, during the breakfast hour on Wednesday, February 24, 2027.
Deadline to Apply: October 26, 2026

Refund Policy
A full refund of the conference registration fee may be given up to 60 days prior to the start date of the conference.
A 50% refund of the conference registration fee may be given up to 30 days prior to the start date of the conference. ADFM provides the hotel with a guaranteed attendance count 30 days before the conference. After this date, registration costs are incurred on your behalf and refunds will not be issued, except in cases of emergencies as described below.
For family, medical, or weather emergencies that preclude conference attendance, the registrant may request a 50% refund or transfer their registration to another individual in the same registration category who is not yet registered. If a registrant is unable to attend because of a weather emergency, the registrant must confirm that they attempted to reschedule their travel arrangements but could not get to the conference in time.
All requests for refunds must be received by email to the ADFM office at adfm@adfm.org. No refunds will be issued later than 1 week after the end of the conference.
