Join us for the leading payment security and compliance event for the higher education sector. In its 14th year, this will be a jam-packed event full of insights from industry experts and peers in the education sector. Focusing on payment security and building on previous events we will look at the latest insights from the PCI Security Standards Council, learn from institutions implementing payment security programmes and identify best practices. Based on feedback, this year’s conference has evolved to include compliance covering topics such as AML, fraud and risk management. The event will consist of panel discussions, workshops, presentations, and fantastic opportunities to network with your peers and industry experts.
