2025 Conference Sponsorship

2025 Conference Sponsorship Levels

The Graduate Career Consortium invites sponsors for our 2025 Annual Conference, which will take place in-person in Minneapolis on from the evening of June 10, 2025 through Noon on June 13, 2025.
 
The GCC conference brings together hundreds of members from universities across North America. Our conference attendees work as directors, deans, program managers, career counselors, and faculty, and they collectively serve hundreds of thousands of graduate students and postdoctoral scholars on their professional development and career-related needs.
 
Sponsors have a variety of opportunities to connect and share information with our members at the conference and throughout the year. This exchange of cutting-edge approaches, tools, and technologies that support our shared goal of maximizing the success and professional growth of graduate students and postdocs is a key aspect of our own professional growth. Learn more about the benefits of sponsorship below.
 
If you have questions or would like to sponsor, email sponsorship@gradcareerconsortium.org.
