Speaking Opportunities

Volunteer to be CASE speaker

Volunteers are at the heart of everything CASE does. They drive CASE's direction, develop and share knowledge about the profession and deliver services to their peers. 

CASE conferences are designed and developed by volunteers who are CASE members, education leaders, and other experts willing to share knowledge and expertise, and would not happen without their support.

If you are interested in speaking at this conference, please use the form and we will be in touch soon.

  • Access to and working with good clean data
  • Legacy administration can be complex, extensive and time consuming, especially for small teams

  • What to prioritise within your team and projects
  • Legacy acquisition appeals

  • Advocating for your programme and managing upwards
  • Donor/legacy pledger stewardship fundamentals
  • Appeal fundamentals (e.g. direct mail / telethon)
