For the first time, attendees at the NASO Summit will have the opportunity to customize more of their experience through a new track-based session format.
Rather than moving through the event with a one-size-fits-all agenda, participants will be able to choose from a variety of sessions grouped into focused tracks built around key areas of interest in the officiating industry. The new format is designed to help attendees spend more time in conversations and presentations that directly match their roles, responsibilities and goals.
Among the tracks offered will be Women In Officiating, Assigners, Law and Liability, State Association Issues and Professional Development for Working Officials, with additional categories planned as the program takes shape. Whether an attendee is a leader within a state association, an assigner managing complex scheduling demands, an official looking to grow professionally, or someone interested in the unique issues affecting women in the industry, the track system will make it easier to find relevant and practical content.

The change reflects NASO’s ongoing effort to make the Summit more useful, more engaging and more responsive to the diverse needs of those who attend. Officiating is not a one-role profession, and the challenges facing leaders, assigners and active officials often differ in important ways. By grouping sessions into targeted tracks, the Summit can better serve those differences while still preserving the event’s broader sense of community and shared purpose.
Attendees will still benefit from the wide-ranging ideas, networking and industry-wide conversations that have long defined the NASO Summit. But now, they will also be able to build a more personalized educational experience, choosing sessions that speak most directly to the work they do every day. Attendees can jump between tracks if they choose.
The result should be a Summit that is not only broader in scope, but sharper in focus, giving attendees more value and more reasons to leave with ideas they can put to work right away.
