The conference starts October 14, 2026.

The conference takes place at The Royal Sonesta in Washington, DC.

The published audience includes college and university presidents, government and public relations personnel, state and mission-specific higher education association presidents, and higher education executives.

It is worth it for college and university presidents, NAICU board and committee members, and heads of state or mission-specific higher education associations, since the meeting is built around the association's national board and leadership discussing issues facing private higher education. Faculty, mid-level administrators and vendors would get less from it, because the audience is executive and policy-focused and the purpose is setting the association's response rather than teaching practical skills.

Higher education executives meeting in Washington, DC usually wear business professional attire, such as suits or equivalent.
