Event Details

NACCU Data Summit
October 22-23, 2026
George Washington University

NACCU understands that utilizing the data in your card systems to generate insights and assist your campus in knowledge-based decision making is a dream of many Vice Presidents and leadership on campuses. This task can be daunting and deciding where to start can be the biggest hurdle. Furthermore, developing processes to achieve consistency in data preparation across platforms may make this seem impossible. But if you do not utilize the power in your data, are you really making the best decisions for your campus? Your tools and expertise are only as valuable as the ability to take advantage of them. That is what NACCU wants to help you do!

NACCU has developed a progressive program with building blocks for this two-day in-person hands-on training event. It does not matter what platforms you are using – this training will teach you how to be a data hero! Many attendees have attested… this program will change how you work on your campus!

Gain important skills that increase your value to your campus as well as your own marketability - Register now!
