This year’s Summit objectives:

Identify any gaps or new recommended  “Best Practices”

• Identify strategies to implement existing and new “Best Practices” 
• Identify scalable strategies to implement in the new “Best Practices”
• Aggregate input from Summit sessions to update and enhance the Intercollegiate Athletics Safety and Security “Best Practices” Guide

NCS4 conducted a survey gathering feedback during the 2014 Symposium at the National Sports Safety and Security Conference & Exhibition concerning the Best Practices Guide.  Based upon those recommendations the Summit will be broken into six discussion session areas. Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in moderated discussion groups (round robin format) for each of the designated topical areas:
