In this boot camp, you’ll walk through the entire AMS selection process, from clarifying your needs to identifying potential vendors, vetting the AMS vendors, and selecting your new AMS. You’ll learn what aspects of the selection process are unique to smaller associations and which elements apply to your organization. You’ll walk away with a “selection workbook” that will help guide you through this process and ensure you’re asking all the right questions of your organization and your potential AMS vendors.
Reserved for association/nonprofit organizations with 15 or fewer staff members.
Gain clarity and confidence in selecting the right AMS that best aligns with your association’s needs. This AMS Fest Bootcamp walks you through the selection process from forming the right project team to defining requirements and evaluating potential systems. We’ll highlight what criteria to prioritize, how to make informed decisions, and ways to avoid common pitfalls. By the end of the session, you’ll know how to draft a project plan with a realistic timeline, and potential partners and systems that fit your needs, plus practical insights to help you navigate conversations with solution providers at AMS Fest.
Lunch is reserved for attendees attending both boot camps.
This boot camp is designed for organizations considering, implementing, or upgrading an Association Management System (AMS). Attendees will gain practical knowledge and experience to navigate an AMS implementation project successfully.
Key topics covered include:
Through demos and hands-on exercises, attendees will gain a comprehensive understanding of the critical steps and key considerations for a successful AMS implementation.
This boot camp is ideal for association professionals involved in AMS selection, implementation, and management, including:
It’s no secret that moving AMSs is a bear of an undertaking. So many options. So many moving parts. So many invested parties. And when it’s all said and done (if that’s even a real stage), there’s a treasure trove of lessons that never make it out of the messages, meeting notes, or, let’s be realistic, the project manager’s brain.
In this honest conversation, we’re bringing them out into the open so the organizations at any stage of this journey (you, for example) can make more informed choices about product, path, and partner. You’ll hear from your peers at different stages of the process, from fresh selection to long-lived implementation. They’ll get real about what they got right, what blew up in their faces, and what they’d tell their past selves if they could.

Data conversion is consistently one of the most complex and high-risk phases of any AMS implementation, involving extraction, cleansing, mapping, and validation before a single record ever touches the new system. In this session, two leading voices in association data services pull back the curtain on what actually happens during a migration, the mistakes that derail timelines and budgets, and how association teams can prepare their organization’s data before, during, and after a system switch.
