The overarching goal for the Summit is to support institutional teams in crafting concrete, ongoing plans for student success and Momentum by facilitating information sharing, critical reflection, assessment, and evaluation of established areas of work, ongoing and emerging needs, and institutional priorities in the area of student success.  This work should building on existing practices, identify priority areas for improvement, create a larger community on campus to focus on student success work, and identifying the critical changes that are necessary to ensure students can navigate their way to their goals.

This year's Summit features:

• an introductory session on the Momenutm Approach in the USG
• an online "course" with resources and materials ,
• discussion areas for sharing your thoughts,
• live virtual sessions featuring panels and presentations spread across three weeks,
• time for campus planning, and
• an opportunity for a facilitated showcase/workshop at each institution.

This design is intended to maximize opportunities for faculty and staff to participate and learn from one another, and honors our pledge that we would make the most of the time we have together for active, engaged conversations. Each participant will be enrolled in the Mometum Summit VIII course in MomentumU@USG, which will open in February 2025, and will be asked to engage with the material and review archived sessions. During the virtual sessions, participants will be able to engage with the presenters, hosts, and one another to dig deeper on the topics and share their experiences. 

And, of course, the centerpiece of the Summit is the dedicated time for intentional planning on campus that leads to the development of a campus Momentum Plan.

Participation for the virtual Summit is open to all, so institutions may include as many individuals as they like to join us. Not every person will need to attend every session, but we encourage campuses to plan and structure participation to ensure that each unit on campus is represented at each session and that teams are able to share and engage during the designated team planning sessions to the greatest extent possible.
