As the only national educational event dedicated specifically to paralegal and legal studies professionals, the AAfPE National Conference represents the best opportunity for you to acquire essential and cutting-edge information and resources to ensure that your students are as knowledgeable and marketable as possible in the ever-challenging job market. Educational sessions reflect research and assessment findings presented by paralegal and legal studies educators and other thought-leaders in the field and beyond who incorporate new ideas relating to both curriculum and instructional method. Gain tools and resources you can immediately put to use in improving your program. Delve deeper into the exchange of information and ideas by connecting with other faculty and program directors. Benchmark with other institutions and learn new and improved ways to assess program effectiveness.

Detroit was chosen by Fodor’s travel magazine as one of the 2019 places to go, and this year’s conference host hotel just has to be part of the reason why! The Westin Book Cadillac Detroit is a historic landmark in the heart of the city’s resurgent downtown district—a short walk from attractions that offer something for everyone: the BELT, a photogenic pedestrian alley; Renaissance Center, GM’s riverfront headquarters with its shops, eateries and concept car showroom; landmark theatre venues such as the Fox Theatre, the Fillmore and the Detroit Opera House; three stunning casinos (The Greektown Casino, The Motor City Casino and The MGM Grand Casino); and the scenic RiverWalk, to name just a few.
