Description: This presentation will discuss pipeline events in general, but will focus on a specific PA Program's four different examples of pipeline events: two that are considered 'field trips' for elementary aged children, and two that are part of larger inclusive excellence university initiative towards middle school and high school students.

Learning Objectives:

Define a pipeline event and describe its purpose
Evaluate the presented examples of activities and adapt them to their own program. Design an event that may be unique to their program
Create a new pipeline event idea and display confidence in starting and facilitating a future pipeline event for their program
