The 2026 CCA AI Summit

Join Complete College America in Chicago, Ill., June 29 & 30 for the inaugural CCA AI Summit. As the AI landscape continues to evolve, CCA is exploring the new possibilities it offers to increase educational attainment. Generative AI has real potential to enhance the work already happening across states, systems, and campuses. Your partnership is essential as we build a roadmap to navigate this new landscape with equity and student success at the forefront. The evolving artificial intelligence (AI) landscape creates new resources to support college completion, but practitioners and policymakers must carefully consider how these resources can be approached with equity, economic opportunity, and students in mind at every step. Complete College America is exploring the new possibilities offered by AI to increase educational attainment and to include historically excluded voices in the development of new technology and the scaling of student success practices. AI has the potential to enhance work already happening across states, systems, and campuses to propel CCA’s mission forward. Generative AI can be an effective tool in the college attainment toolbox. Institutions and organizations that embrace AI can not only harness new transformative tools but also equip students with the necessary skills and competencies to succeed in AI-driven industries, thereby propelling their long-term opportunities. This is just the beginning for AI—and Complete College America will continue to develop insights on policies, perspectives, and practices around equitable uses of and access to AI for postsecondary attainment and student success, creating a roadmap to navigate this new technological landscape.
