junEXCEL Summit Campus-Based ProfessionalsOffered in Partnership with RISE Partnerships
There are more director-level leadership roles within fraternity/sorority life on campus than there have ever been, and the complexities involved
There are more director-level leadership roles within fraternity/sorority life on campus than there have ever been, and the complexities involved in the job are only increasing. This calls for more advanced training on strategy, operations management, and departmental leadership for those taking on the position. RISE created The EXCEL Summit to meet that need with insights from dozens of external reviews and strategic planning projects, the best research and thinking on organizational leadership as it relates to fraternity/sorority life, and the extensive professional expertise of our team members.
The EXCEL Summit is open to current and aspiring fraternity/sorority department leaders. Department leaders are the ranking or primary fraternity/sorority professional at the institution, including those who are the only fraternity/sorority professional for their institution.
Aspiring department leaders may attend, provided they have relevant experience and support from their supervisors. The program involves working with budgets, objectives, programs and services, and staffing. Those who do not have access to data and/or context in these areas may find it difficult to learn and apply program content.
The EXCEL Summit is a month-long intensive online training experience that will help participants develop their executive leadership abilities and learn how to better organize a department. Working with peers in a community of practice, participants will learn a framework for analyzing their department, gain technical knowledge about each component of a department, develop their abilities to organize the team, and learn how to prioritize and align their work to improve results.

In reviewing university retention and student wellbeing data related to FSL, SMU made the decision to shift the timing or recruitment/intake from deferred to early fall. Assessments before and after the shift tracked student perceptions regarding the change. Presenters will discuss how university leadership made the decision to move the timing or recruitment, what behavioral shifts occurred in student culture, what the assessment data revealed about the impact to the larger campus, and what changes we are making in year 3.

This program is provided through a generous gift from MJ Sorority to the AFA Foundation.
This course is designed to provide fraternity/sorority professionals with a synthesized and foundational understanding of prevention scholarship as well as a framework for application in their sphere of influence. Each week introduces learners to a new concept of the framework through flipped-classroom style assignments and scenario-based exercises. Learners then have an extended opportunity to apply those concepts to their work with colleagues, subject matter experts, and facilitators during a live virtual session each week.
Course Format
The Health Promotions course will be hybrid with a mix of self-directed and group-based learning opportunities. The asynchronous portions will focus on knowledge acquisition through a combination of lecturettes, advanced reading and assignments, interactive learning strategies, and scenario-based exercises. These sessions will vary in length from approximately 60-90 minutes, with the option to do additional supplemental work beyond that time frame.
The synchronous sessions will last 90 minutes and are intended to be driven by conversation and meaning making. Learners will have the opportunity to check their understanding through facilitated discussion, apply the concepts presented in the lesson to their organizational context, and work through the steps of the framework with colleagues. While tied to the information in the lesson, these sessions intentionally avoid lecture and their success is reliant upon the learners’ willingness to engage with the provided content ahead of time.
Program Dates
The summer 2026 cohort will launch on Friday, June 5. Live, virtual sync sessions will take place weekly on Thursdays, from 12:30pm – 2 p.m. ET beginning on Thursday, June 11 and continuing through Thursday, July 16.
Participants should anticipate spending 2-3 hours per week on asynchronous work and roughly 90 minutes per week in live, synchronous meetings.
NOTE: Virtual synchronous sessions will be recorded for participants who are unable to participate live. Participants are expected to attend at least four live, virtual sync sessions to receive credit for participating in the program.

This interactive session explores the journey of rebuilding high-risk student organizations through the lens of university and headquarters professionals. Using Indiana University’s disciplinary status webpage as a launch point, participants will examine the real implications of terms like cease and desist and disciplinary probation, and what those designations mean beyond policy violations. Together, as a team (students, headquarters, and university) we’ll reframe these moments not as endpoints, but as the beginning of a long-term culture shift toward sustainable, values-based change. Through candid storytelling and shared experience, this session will illuminate how rebuilding efforts rely not just on institutional oversight or compliance, but on a committed partnership between students, their national organizations, and the university.

As chapters increasingly rely on newer members for key leadership roles, many student leaders are stepping in before they’re fully prepared while older members check out. This session explores this leadership disconnect using data, research, and student focus groups across four councils (IFC, MGC, NPHC, PHA). Attendees will gain insight into why underclassmen often feel underprepared and unequipped and why upperclassmen disengage, along with strategies for advisors to better support emerging leaders and reengage seasoned members.
