We the People: NCMPR's 2026 national conference is in Washington, D.C.

Registration is now open.

We the People are creative doers. We the People are leaders who want to help our teams thrive. We the People are the marcom and PR pros who support and celebrate the successes of our students.

And We the People deserve a little celebration, too.

That’s what you’ll get at NCMPR’s 2026 national conference in Washington, D.C. We’ll celebrate your dedication to ensuring all students have the best opportunities for success. We’ll celebrate your work and drive to learn the industry’s new techniques and technologies, and we’ll provide the expertise to teach you those techniques and technologies.

We’ll get back to our roots, too. Because when a national organization gathers in the nation’s capital, there’s no better time to be loud and proud of who we are and what we represent: open-access education for all.

We the People is March 18-20, 2026, in Washington, D.C. We cannot wait to cheerlead you.
