Outcomes
Conference
April 28- 30, 2026
Dallas, Texas
Faculty Information Center 2026
Thank you for serving as faculty!
You will play a pivotal role in ensuring this event’s success! We are privileged to have a stellar lineup of thought leaders like you in our 2026 faculty, offering practical insights into our nine core teaching tracks.
Our 2026 theme is “MULTIPLY.”
In the Parable of the Sower in Luke 8, good soil bearing bountiful fruit is a heart fully surrendered to Christ and receptive to the seed of God’s Word. Likewise, fruit is multiplied today as Alliance members receive God’s Word and obediently respond to God’s call.
“But the seed on good soil stands for those with a noble and good heart, who hear the word, retain it, and by persevering produce a crop.”
Luke 8:15

NOTE: Please do not send us your completed PowerPoint “slides” as we do not post those. You should bring your PowerPoint slides on your own laptop along with any necessary adapters to connect to the classroom projector. Feel free to share your email address with your classroom attendees so they can reach out to request your slides, which you can send directly to them afterwards.
4. April 3, 2026: Digital Session Overview Due
Submit a PDF file of your Digital Session Overview to Donna Bostick: donna.bostick@christianleadershipalliance.org.
Attendees value these Digital Session Overviews, and they can affect your session’s evaluation scores. It will be posted as a PDF so attendees can access it in our App. We will NOT provide printed copies of these onsite. (Limit your PDF attachment to 3 pages or fewer.)
Description: Your digital summary PDF should complement your presentation. It can include an outline/overview, along with key takeaways for attendees. It can provide additional information, including links to recommended resources for further exploration.
5. Hotel Reservation
Be sure to reserve your own room at the Hyatt Regency DFW International Airport.
6. Moderators
An Alliance “Moderator” will be assigned to each teaching session. Their role is to introduce you, recognize sponsors, encourage attendees to complete evaluations of your session, and pass along any technology/hotel needs that arise during your session. They will also share about continuing education credits and check attendees’ name badges. The moderator will introduce themselves before your session begins.
7. CPE Credits
Attendees are eligible for NASBA/CPE, CFRE, SHRM, and CCNL credits. Our conference website will feature additional information.
8. General Presentation Guidelines
Please weave our conference theme, “Multiply,” into your presentation. Conference teaching sessions must be:
- Practical
- Relevant
- Compelling
- Biblically-aligned
- Transformational
- Outcomes oriented
- Interactive
They should be oriented toward leaders of today’s Christian nonprofit organizations, although sessions may offer broad application to any call to Christian leadership, regardless of sphere.
Interactive Collaboration: Please ensure that your presentation is interactive. This can include time for questions and answers, feedback, table discussions, and idea generation, among other activities. We find that sessions that fully engage our adult learners receive the highest evaluation scores.
Educational Focus: Presenters have agreed not to use the time to promote their organization or its services but to share successful practices and takeaways. The quickest way to lower evaluation scores is for faculty members to use sessions for promotional rather than educational purposes.
Academic Level: Please seek to teach content commensurate with your selected teaching level: Basic, Intermediate, or Advanced.
