We’re excited to welcome our community of higher ed innovators to the 2025 Thesis Elements & CAMS User Conference, happening now in Chicago. Elements and CAMS users from across the country will come together to explore what’s next for the Elements platform, share insights, and help shape the future of student information systems over the next three days.
This year's event is all about momentum—how we build it, how we maintain it, and how we harness it to drive smarter, faster, more responsive solutions for small to mid-sized institutions.
A Glimpse at What’s Ahead
The conference features a full agenda designed around practical learning, peer connection, and transparency into our product vision. Across sessions, workshops, and networking events, attendees will get to:
- Preview What’s Next on the Thesis Roadmap
Our product and engineering leaders will walk through key areas of focus for the coming year, including improved system performance, streamlined configurations, and faster feature releases. A major highlight: the upcoming modernized, role-based portal experience, built to enhance usability and improve the student journey across every touchpoint.
- Hear from Fellow Institutions
Institutions like Blue Mountain Christian University, Blackburn College, and Flathead Valley Community College and others will share how they’re using Thesis Elements to solve long-standing challenges, streamline operations, and support evolving campus needs.
- Engage in Track-Specific Training
Whether you're an existing Thesis Elements customer, a newly signed institution preparing to implement, or a CAMS user considering a transition, there’s a session track tailored for your needs—including hands-on tips, system configuration walkthroughs, and change management strategies.
- Attend Live Q&As and Product Roundtables
You'll have opportunities to ask questions directly, provide feedback, and influence upcoming feature prioritization in real time.
A Strategic Investment in Your Success
This year’s conference also marks a turning point in our company’s evolution. Backed by a recent significant financial investment, we’re accelerating on multiple fronts:
- Speed of Delivery: We've scaled engineering resources to reduce release timelines and systematically clear our defect backlog.
- Product Excellence: Our teams are focused on polish, performance, and responsiveness—raising the bar for what a student information system should deliver.
- User-Driven Innovation: Most importantly, we’re putting our customers at the center—promoting success stories, listening deeply to community feedback, and ensuring real user journeys inform every step of our roadmap.
Every aspect of this event reflects that commitment—from the quality of sessions to the product vision we’re sharing. We’re here to support our customers not just as a vendor, but as a true partner in transformation.
Let’s Build What’s Next—Together
Whether you’re a longtime user, a new customer just beginning implementation, or exploring the future of CAMS, the next few days are all about collaboration and possibility. We’re looking forward to the conversations, the feedback, and the ideas that will help shape where we go next.
Welcome to the 2025 User Conference. Let’s get to work.
