In the summer of 2026 CAIS is migrating to a new membership database and website, hosted by Engagifii. As of July 22, 2026, members will not be able to make profile changes in the current MemberClicks database. If you need to make changes, please email them to Christina Dixcy at [email protected]. This will allow us to ensure that updates are carried over into the new system. Watch out for emails announcing the launch and steps to take to activate your profile in the Engagifii member database.

Sponsorship Opportunities

CAIS is a non-profit and relies on membership dues and corporate support to sustain its mission. Organizations interested in providing financial support to the Association while also reaching member schools with their products, services, and expertise may be interested in joining our Sustaining Partnership program. Opportunities are also available for exhibiting at conferences and purchasing a listing in the CAIS Business Directory.
