Author of Canada's all-time best-selling book, The Wealthy Barber, and co-star of Dragons' Den, David Chilton has helped to take the intimidation out of financial planning for millions of Canadians. You'll enjoy his funny and practical advice on investment, personal finance, and business strategy, and how to pursue your campus' financial goals with confidence.

The Closing Breakfast General Session takes place today from 8:30 a.m. - 10 a.m. Don't miss this final opportunity for personal and professional development before you head home.

The NACAS Annual Conference is where institutions and business partners work together to find solutions. It's not just an exhibit hall, it's a Business Solutions Center. Whether you are showcasing a product or service, or you are looking for new ideas for your campus, this is where the higher education industry moves forward. 

Thank you to the business partners who exhibited in Montréal! Learn more.

NACAS peers gathered Tuesday for a evening of relaxing conversation, iconic Montréal ambiance, and delicious food and drinks. The Gala Event will took place at the World Trade Center and was the perfect way to celebrate a conference full of new beginnings and discoveries.

The location of the World Trade Center, situated between Old Montréal and the downtown district, is symbolic of the juxtaposition of old versus new found so often throughout Montréal. In similar fashion, the 2014 NACAS Annual Conference has been a time to embrace the new and "vive la difference" in the business of higher education.

NACAS encourages all members and business partners to continue the tradition of discovering new ideas and make plans to join us in San Antonio in 2015!

Please congratulate the 2014-2015 NACAS Board of Directors, who were announced at the Celebration Luncheon on Tuesday.

A faithful band of Fun Run/Walk participants met early Tuesday for a beautiful trip along the banks of the Fleuve Saint-Laurent. Congratulations to all the athletes for their outstanding performance, despite the somewhat gloomy conditions.

 

This is the conference where we rethink everything. Where we reinvent and redefine. This is the conference you can't afford to miss. So save the date for the 2015 NACAS Annual Conference in San Antonio, Texas.
