Another reason to Register early!
Take advantage of the newest conference session series: "Learning Shots". Learning Shots are one to two hour interactive, educational sessions in a small classroom setting. Participants receive an overview of a specific technical tool (such as Nolij API, eForms, Jasper Reports, or Intro Nolij Transfer 6) and will garner a macro- level understanding of the topic. These are small, hands- on sessions and have limited seating. So register for Engage now and reserve your Learning Shot seat on a first- come, first- serve basis.
Advance your “Nolij”!

Past Attendee Comments
“I recommend any first year client to be there. I gained so much information that I wouldn’t have had otherwise on implementation.”
Ron Boczarski
Clarkson University
“Even though I am from a technical background, for me personally, it was more about gleaning functional knowledge. Anybody can write sql procedures, but to understand how other peer institutions went about their process of implementing Nolij products was of tremendous value. The ability to interact directly with Nolij employees was extremely beneficial. The open communication channel between Nolij and its clients was great.”
Pete Tannini
Dartmouth College
“Not surprisingly, I found making connections with the folks at other schools who are in the same functional role I am [the most valuable]. It was very valuable to ask other clients, “How do you do this? Why did you do that?” etc.”.
Peter Wiley
Bowdoin College
“How funny it is that the food comes to mind first. But thank you, it really is impressive. More importantly, I like how engaged the Nolij staff is; 3 years and their enthusiasm still rivals that of the attendees. Coupled with Nolij Corp’s commitment to have such a large staff participation – makes this a very worthwhile conference for users. I’m not sure what it is, but the attitude of the user community in attendance is just better than other conferences I’ve been to.”
John White
Drexel University
“I really enjoyed the group of attendees. It was a great size to network. The sessions were informative especially for me as I am an end user of the product. The food was excellent and the boat ride was fun. Also, the amount of time allotted for each session was perfect.”

The Boston Omni Parker Hotel
Historic Luxury in a Downtown Boston Hotel
As you pass through the sculpted bronze doors of this luxury Boston hotel, you will be enveloped by the timeless beauty that has made the Omni Parker House a landmark since 1855. Experience the perfect blend of modern amenities and historic charm at America’s oldest continuously-operating hotel.
Located on the Freedom Trail, guests enjoy grand views of historic downtown Boston, distinguished décor and thoughtful amenities that are evident in every striking detail in each of the 551 luxurious guest rooms. Walk to Beacon Hill, Faneuil Hall Marketplace, Quincy Market, the Financial District, shopping and more. Just 2.5 miles (10-15 minutes) from Logan International Airport.
Boston is a city rich with history from the Boston cream pie to the Boston Tea Party or the midnight ride of Paul Revere. And the Omni Parker House puts you close to the city's best-loved locales. Boston is a patriotic town older than America itself, so a tour through the city’s fabled streets is like a walk through time.
Stroll to Beacon Hill or the famous Orpheum Theatre, visit spirited Cambridge and the Harvard campus or catch a ball game at Fenway Park. Take a walk down the Freedom Trail and shop in Quincy Market. At the Omni Parker House Hotel, you’re a heartbeat away from the best of Beantown.
