San Diego CEIA 2023: Coast to Coast

April 2-4, 2023

Conference Overview 

The 60th Annual Cooperative Education and Internship Association Conference will be in Sunny San Diego on April 2 – April 4, 2023. It is a special year as we will be celebrating our 60th Anniversary and returning to our location previously planned when Covid-19 changed our lives. Join us as we come together to celebrate our 60th anniversary in the Westin San Diego Bayview – an upscale hotel that boasts a prime location in the heart of downtown San Diego.

Our theme for the conference is Coast to Coast: Empowering Student Success for 60 years. Through all our work we make sure we jump start student’s success, and no one does it better than our members. We look forward to the amazing programming and sessions in 2023!

This year leading up to the conference we will be going back in time and seeing the roots of our amazing association through different decades and eras and how we have evolved. Stay tuned for more programming as we get closer to our special day.

We are excited to see you again.
