Connect at Convention

NETWORK, FIND A MENTOR AND LEARN FROM SISTERS ACROSS ALL INDUSTRIES WHEN WE’RE TOGETHER IN INDIANAPOLIS!     

Alpha Chi Omega is all about connection, and one way we build connections is through Women & Wisdom. This is our signature program that provides professional and personal development opportunities for our members – and we’re bringing it to the 62nd National Convention on July 12-14, 2024! Find out how you can get involved when you’re in Indianapolis. 

Looking for a mentor? Take part in Convention Connections! Alumnae attendees can participate as mentors, mentees or both; collegiate attendees can participate as mentees. When you sign up, you’ll be matched with a sister and receive milestones to complete in your new relationship, including communicating virtually prior to convention and setting up an in-person meeting while in Indianapolis. The goal of this mentoring experience is to create intentional connections at convention and hopefully introduce you to a sister that you’d like to continue the relationship with beyond the event! To sign up, just add Convention Connections to your convention registration or email mentoring@alphachiomega.org by June 9.  

Want to make connections but don’t know where to start? We have a tool for you! Each attendee will receive a numbered Race to Connect! button to wear throughout the weekend. When you see another sister with a matching button, take the leap and connect! There are no rules for what you talk about – chapter experiences, leadership positions, dream careers, volunteer roles – and you’ll walk away with a new friend! 

Ready to meet sisters across all industries? Spend some time in the Women & Wisdom Lounge. Throughout the weekend, this space will offer opportunities to learn more about getting involved, connect at interest group meet-ups and more. On Friday afternoon, we’ll have special meet-ups for Entrepreneurs and Sisters in Business, Finance and Beyond at 1:30 p.m.; Sisters in STEM at 2:15 p.m.; Sisters in Marketing and Communications at 3 p.m.; Moms, Parents and Caregivers at 3:45 p.m.; and Young Professionals at 4:30 p.m. The lounge is also the perfect place to schedule your own meet-up during the weekend! Message sisters or make a meet-up in the convention app and use the lounge as your spot to connect. Feel free to stop by the Women & Wisdom Lounge whenever your schedule allows – you never know who you’ll meet!  

Need a new headshot? Join us in the Women & Wisdom Lounge Friday or Sunday to have a professional photo taken. You’ll receive it after convention and can use it on your Women & Wisdom profile or LinkedIn bio. 

Want to learn something new? Join us in the Women & Wisdom Lounge on Sunday during convention for education sessions. You’ll learn professional development tips from HR pros, explore how to build leadership and volunteer skills, and hear from a panel of alumnae sisters across various industries. And there’s even more to learn in other education sessions throughout the weekend – check out the schedule at alphachiomega.org/convention! 

We can’t wait to connect with hundreds of Alpha Chi Omegas as we set the pace in July!
