I am seeking approval to attend the Naviance Summer Institute user conference, this July 10-12 in
Scottsdale, AZ. These three days will be full of learningbest practices, training, and high-level
professional development. Throughout the conference, I will attend sessions that are directly
applicable to my work with Naviance Succeed and learn from other Naviance Network members on
how to maximize our investment. The cost of the main conference is $795 and I can attend preconference training workshops for $150 each, conducted by Naviance trainers (after May 1, 2012
the main conference fee increases to $895). The Naviance Summer Institute is the most costeffective way to ensure that we are getting the most from our Naviance investmentand will result
in immediate ROI. Attending the conference is the perfect place to pick up new ideas and drive
more productivity from our implementation, as well as learn how schools and districts like us are
using the products.
Here is an approximate breakdown of conference costs:
Airfare

This conference delivers incredible value. I will learn how to implement and use the latest features
and see what is planned for future releases. The opportunity to meet and learn from other Naviance
Network members to gain knowledge on how they are maximizing their use of Naviance Succeed is
priceless.
