Tribes and the Exchange Network
ACADEMY AGENDA
The TribalDATA event is scheduled for Tuesday, November 5-Thursday, November 7, 2019. The event is composed of three separate, concurrent, workshop sessions that run Tuesday-Wednesday (two full days), followed by individualized mentoring and information-sharing opportunities on Thursday morning that will allow attendees to explore what they’ve learned more deeply by using their own data and talking with other tribal professionals one-on-one.

WORKSHOP APPLICATION FORM
Workshops are open to any tribal employee who meets the requirements to participate and is accepted to attend.

COMPUTER REQUIREMENTS
Attendees are REQUIRED to bring a laptop computer to participate in the workshop! Some sessions have specific software, settings, or data to download in advance; attendees will receive specific instructions for installation and other requirements with notification of their acceptance for the workshop. Please contact Lydia.Scheer@nau.edu with any questions regarding requirements for computer setup.
Assistance will also be available during the Welcome Reception and Meet-and-Greet (Monday, November 4, 5-8 pm at The Drury Inn) for any last-minute computer setup and troubleshooting support. If you are using a computer that you are not familiar with, we encourage you to attend as time will not be allocated during workshop sessions for individual troubleshooting as a result of inadequate computer setup. Attendees are responsible for the functionality of their computers; assistance provided will be in the form of guidance only as we cannot adjust settings requiring IT administrator access.
HOTEL & TRAVEL LOGISTICS
PLEASE NOTE: Details on hotel and travel logistics will be provided to applicants with notification of their acceptance for the workshop. If you have questions or concerns, please contact NEIEN@nau.edu.
