PNPI’s mission is to increase the knowledge, capacity, and diversity of federal postsecondary policymakers, leaders, and thinkers. We believe that people produce better policy when they expand their knowledge base, that policymakers strengthen collegial bonds when they come together in shared learning, and that it is essential to have diverse voices in the rooms where federal policy is being made.
Sponsors help us achieve our goals
We support federal policymakers and those who influence them because we understand that they are uniquely situated to have a tremendous impact on advancing student access and success.
We are committed, innovative, mission-driven, and unique in the higher education space. Sponsorships help us continue moving our mission forward.
Below are our current sponsorship opportunities.
“PNPI truly stands out with their intentional programming, experienced speakers, and timely topics. PNPI has helped me dive deeper into the labyrinth that is education policy while building bicameral and bipartisan friendships along the way.”
