Expert planning. Seamless execution. Extended impact.
Conferences and Institutes partners with subject matter experts throughout the University, the Commonwealth, and beyond to plan both large and small educational programs for sharing research, advancing professional practice, building networks, and amplifying the University’s impact. In addition to working with the Penn State community, we partner with private companies, professional associations, nonprofit organizations, government agencies, and other external clients to design and deliver meaningful opportunities for learning, connection, and growth.
From initial concepting to post-program evaluation, our team of operations experts will work tirelessly to help you present a professional program that reflects Penn State’s status as a world-class university. We take the time to understand your goals and develop a customized plan to elevate your conference, training program, or event. From registration and logistics to on-site execution, we manage all the details so your team can focus on content that engages your audience.
As part of Penn State, we can also help connect you with campus resources, venues, and subject-matter expertise to further enhance your program. We keep tasks and timelines on track, monitor budget and finance matters, manage communications across stakeholder groups, anticipate problems before they arise, and ensure policy adherence.

Partner Testimonials
Conferences and Institutes helped so much with all the scheduling, financial tracking, web marketing, food, entertainment, and more. They brought expertise in areas where I am not well versed and would not have known what to do.
We love you guys! You cut through the red tape by already understanding what would have taken us weeks to figure out.
The best part for me was the high level of organization. Your team was well prepared and that made everything significantly better for me and for the participants!
