Peer Ed Conference at OSU
By OSU Peer Educators, for OSU Peer Educators
The Peer Ed Conference at OSU happened in fall 2023 and fall 2024 - and we expect to host it again in fall 2025! A peer educator is a student who supports other students, and OSU has many types of peer educators in a variety of roles across different areas of campus. Additionally, many student clubs and organizations provide peer-to-peer support. By participating in the Peer Ed Conference, you will have a unique opportunity to join a community of peers while adding something exceptional to your resume.
Typically, registration opens week 0 of fall term and closes at the start of the week of the conference. If you are interested in learning more or getting involved, reach out! It takes a robust team to put on a Peer Educator Conference, and a lot of that work happens in the spring and summer terms.
