NERCOMP Annual Conference 2026

The NERCOMP Annual Conference is the place where our community of IT professionals, faculty, researchers, learners, and institutions come together to engage, network, and learn from each other's experiences in advancing innovation and leadership in higher education. The NorthEast Regional Computing Program (NERCOMP) partners with EDUCAUSE to bring together leaders in the higher education IT community from across the region.

This year’s theme, Connect Locally, Think Globally, challenges us to deepen local collaboration while engaging with the global forces shaping higher education technology.

In today’s interconnected world, strong foundations are rooted in local relationships with nearby institutions and within our extended NERCOMP community. Yet innovation thrives when we also engage with global best practices and international trends.

Join us in celebrating the power of local connections and the promise of global insights. Together, we’ll spotlight regional successes, draw inspiration from international experiences, and build partnerships that advance innovation—across the Northeast and throughout the global higher ed community.

Please note: Financial assistance is available to help NERCOMP members attend the NERCOMP annual conference. This program recognizes a combination of personal and institutional commitment, potential benefit, and financial need. Visit the event website for more details.
