The programming further enhances leadership skills and inspires our members to take values-based actions within their chapter, on their campuses and within their communities. General Convention is held every two years. The event is open to all collegiate and alumna members. Attendees have the opportunity to vote on important organizational topics, network with one another and attend educational sessions and workshops. Kappa Leadership Conference is held in non-convention years and focuses on officer-specific training as well as adviser education. The presented programming aligns with our Pillars of Education.
