Webinar Hosts and Presenters

NODA Webinars bring higher education professionals together to explore timely topics in orientation, transition, and retention (OTR) — from first-year student success to campus partnerships, equity and inclusion, and the evolving needs of today’s incoming students.

  • Host: Brings extensive expertise in higher education, particularly OT&R, to lead the webinar — setting the agenda, introducing the presenter(s) and topic, guiding the conversation, and managing Q&A and technical logistics to keep the session running smoothly for attendees.
  • Presenter: A guest or field leader who joins to share their expertise and firsthand experience on a specific OT&R topic, delivering the core content of the session to NODA’s professional audience.

On-Site Event Support

There are many opportunities to volunteer at NODA events. Volunteering for “day of” events is a great way to get involved with NODA and network with your peers. Event volunteer opportunities are announced during event registration and vary by event.
