Session Types

General Sessions
General Sessions will bring together all participants and be led by notable individual speakers on topics broadly applicable to corporate social impact professionals. These sessions will challenge ways of thinking, drive inspiration, and provide best practices.

Plenary Sessions
Our plenary sessions will focus on current corporate social impact topics of interest through a panel discussion featuring multiple viewpoints and approaches from either differing industries, size of organization, or by stakeholder groups. There will be two blocks of plenaries offering a choice to participants on the topic most relevant to them.

Workshops
Aligned with ACCP’s content priority areas, workshops are an opportunity for presenters to provide an interactive experience for Conference attendees. These sessions will include a range of hands-on activities, through workbooks or guides, personal plans, assessments, small group discussions, or mini on-site projects.

Learning Labs
Learning labs are presentations that take attendees on a deep dive through a real-world example or case study into program elements or recent CSR/ESG trends.

Spark Sessions
Spark sessions will share multiple case studies around a central topic to showcase various methods of delivery and perspectives. Each case study is approximately 10 minutes in length and will be presented consecutively in a lightning round format.

Fireside Chats
Fireside chats are conversations conducted interview-style to delve into various career journeys of mid-to-senior level CSR professionals.
