Important Notices:
- Online registration is scheduled to open mid-October.
- This page will be updated as additional information become available.
SSWR provides opportunities for students to “earn” their registration fee by volunteering at the SSWR Annual Conference. Volunteers assist with registration, monitor sessions (handout materials, count the number of attendees in each session, assist presenters with AV needs, sign CEU forms) and provide directions to attendees.
Volunteer requirements
- Volunteer hours: volunteers are expected to contribute a total of six (6) hours of time during the conference. Volunteers who miss their assigned times are responsible for the conference fee and may not be accepted as a volunteer the following year. Students who are also presenters may schedule their volunteer time so it does not conflict with their presentations.
- Membership: student Volunteers must be current SSWR members as of January 1, 2025. You may renew or join in 2024 at sswr.org. If you do not know your member ID, please contact SSWR at info@sswr.org.
- Virtual orientation meetings: student volunteers must watch a 20-minute training video before their first volunteer shift. There will be a 1-hour optional virtual Q&A with the volunteer coordinators before the conference. The link to the training video and information about the virtual Q&A session will be sent to all accepted student volunteers.
