The California Association for Institutional Research (CAIR) is dedicated to the fostering of unity and cooperation among persons having interests and activities related to institutional research and/or planning in California institutions of postsecondary education. CAIR provides a forum for the dissemination of information and interchange of ideas on problems of common interest in the field of institutional research.
In addition, CAIR promotes the continued professional development of individuals engaging in institutional research and fosters the unity and cooperation among persons having interests and activities related to research.
The theme will focus on:
Honoring CAIR’s Legacy: Recognizing 50 years of service to the institutional research community in California.
Continuing a Tradition of Leadership: Emphasizing the role of institutional researchers as leaders who shape and advance the field.
Promoting Knowledge Sharing: Serving as a vital forum for exchanging ideas, strategies, and innovations.
Fostering Professional Growth: Supporting the development of skills, expertise, and leadership among institutional researchers.
Uplifting the Purpose of IR: Reinforcing the idea that we work for institutional research—actively shaping its future rather than simply identifying with it.
Driving Progress in California: Strengthening the impact of institutional research within the state’s diverse educational landscape.
