CRPConnect is scheduled for October 22–24, 2026.

The symposium takes place at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York.

The organizer identifies planning leaders, current faculty and students, former classmates, and prospective interns among the people connected with the event.

It is most useful for Cornell planning alumni, current students and faculty, and for practitioners hoping to find a mentor or meet prospective interns, since the multi-day program on the Ithaca campus pairs keynotes, presentations and workshops with reunion-style networking. Professionals with no tie to the department or to academic planning, and vendors seeking buyers, will get less, as it is run by a university department and no exhibitors are listed.

Attendees at academic planning symposiums usually wear smart casual, such as chinos, sweaters and blazers, with no need for suits. Late October in Ithaca is cool, so layers, a coat and comfortable walking shoes for the campus are sensible.
