The NACA Programming Basics Institute is geared toward NEW college student programmers who have little or no experience coordinating campus programs and events.

• Develop basic programming skills in an experiential format
• Gain hands-on experience creating, promoting, implementing and evaluating events
• Develop a network of peers to call upon for ideas, resources and problem-solving strategies
• Learn ways to creatively publicize and promote campus events to specific audiences
• Improve leadership skills in areas such as delegation, meeting facilitation and effective communication
• Enhance their understanding of contracting and negotiation
• Form working programming boards with advisors and develop and present events during the institute
