From the Chair

This Institute has all the earmarks of an event unlike any other. It represents the first major conference to be co-produced by CASE and the Association of Advancement Services Professionals (AASP). Every member of the faculty has over 20 years of experience in the industry and each one is an active member of both AASP and CASE. Faculty members have experience in higher education, nonprofit organizations, nonprofit consulting and nonprofit technology and will be available for one-on-one consultations throughout the conference. We will be joined by guest speakers who have been responsible for the evolution of the industry and our technologies.

Participants will have the opportunity to choose between sessions that cover fundamentals as well as big-picture strategic concepts and networking opportunities will abound.

We welcome those who are new to the field, as well as those who have been around the block a few times, to learn and experience the profession together.

I look forward to seeing you in Vermont for an Institute like none other!

John H. Taylor, Institute Chair
