Saxbys: A Blueprint for Paid, Credited, Campus-Based Experiential Learning

Tuesday, June 23, 2026

2:00 PM EDT

Presenters:

  • Nick Bayer, Saxbys CEO
  • Rosie Clark-Parsons, Saxbys Director of Experiential Learning & Impact
  • Melody Wozunk, Saxbys Senior Manager, Brands & Partnerships Activation
  • Kristen Gallo, Temple University
  • Patrick Francis, Purdue University, Indianapolis Campus

What if students didn’t have to choose between earning a paycheck and gaining meaningful experiential learning? Join Saxbys for an engaging conversation on rethinking work-integrated learning through paid, credited, campus-based experiences that meet students where they are. This session will challenge traditional models of experiential learning, explore how institutions can scale access and equity, and highlight the real-world impact of the Saxbys Student CEO model — where students lead business operations while building career-ready skills, earning income, and progressing toward their degrees. Attendees will also hear directly from a former Student CEO and two CEIA members who have embraced these opportunities on their campuses.

Free for CEIA Members / Non-Members $50.00

Registration closes Monday, June 22 @ 6:00 PM EDT
