The 1st Affordable Learning Summit, hosted virtually by Seattle University will be on Wednesday, October 14, 2026. The theme of the Summit will be Collaborative Approaches to Affordability Initiatives. The work of Affordable Learning is, by its nature, collaborative and a shared goal for an institution, and as such we hope the Summit will showcase learnings, best practices, and innovative approaches to solving these shared concerns.
