Get inspired by keynotes from inside and outside our industry with topics relevant to our day-to-day but not as niche as the breakouts.

Momentum27_Student_Success_Retention_Icon_Blue

Student Success & Retention (Attendance & Mobile App)

Experiential learning is on the rise, so we need to make sure these students stay on track. With attendance, skills tracking, clinical management, and interventions, see how other schools are boosting their retention rates.

Financial Aid & Compliance

Stay ahead of regulations, get tips for accreditation, and understand how to run your financial aid processes more smoothly.

Momentum27_Student_Data_Records_Icon_Blue

Student Data & Records (SIS, Payments)

Explore how to manage the full student lifecycle in one place, from enrollment through graduation. Learn how to keep your systems in sync across departments and how schools are making payments easier for staff and students alike, with tools for automation, transparency, and real-time reporting.

Momentum27_Admissions_Marketing_Icon_Blue

Admissions & Marketing (CRM)

Recruitment and enrollment help fuel the growth of your institution – and adding more qualified learners into your programs isn’t a given. Learn strategies for reaching students where they are as well as hands-on training for our CRM, marketing automation, and document management tools.

Momentum27_Clinical_Mgmt_Icon_Blue

Clinical Management

Discover strategies for tracking evaluations, managing placements, and staying audit-ready with centralized tools like Trajecsys. You’ll also get updates on nursing program requirements and best practices for staying compliant, organized, and student-focused.
