THANK YOU FOR ATTENDING!
Thank you for being part of the 2026 Institutional Data Summit!
This year, we came together to reconnect with the foundations of institutional data. Across six dynamic tracks and 21 engaging sessions, we examined what it means to truly “get the basics right.” When we invest in strong data foundations and take the time to recognize patterns, we create the conditions for lasting progress and a stronger future for our University community.
If you’d like to revisit your favorite sessions (or explore ones you may have missed) all Institutional Data Summit recordings are available below.
Recording Notice
While we aimed to capture all sessions in full, a small number of recordings experienced technical difficulties during the event. In some cases, audio was successfully recorded but does not align with the presentation slides.
To ensure this valuable content is still accessible, these sessions are being shared in an audio-only format. Downloadable slides are made available and the core insights and discussions remain intact. We appreciate your understanding.
