• Introductory sessions for newcomers, explaining the what and why of Kuali

• Demonstrations of products and implemented applications

• Collaboration discussions, and much more!

The daily conference registration fee is R1000 for South African delegates and US$100 for international delegates, payable in advance. The fee includes daily lunch, tea breaks and a reception on the evening of the 12th.

We look forward to an informative and enjoyable event, and hope to see you there!

Who is the Kuali community?

The Kuali community provides enterprise resource planning (ERP) software for higher education, making it available free of license fees to all higher education institutions. This model reduces the cost of administrative systems and collectively helps these institutions save hundreds of millions in ERP costs. Thousands of users at these institutions are already using one of more of the Kuali administrative software systems.

Kuali offers eight major software systems for:

• financial management,

• research / grants administration,

• student services ,

• human resources / payroll,

• library management,


• business continuity,

• middleware / workflow, and

• enterprise mobility.

The community is therefore committed to providing sustainable, license free, open source solutions that allow institutions to keep their money for their mission. For more information about Kuali go to www.kuali.org.

What will happen at Kuali Days SA?

A wide variety of presentations will be done over the two days ranging from a basic introduction and overview of Kuali to detailed specifics on new and existing functionalities. During this time, you will also have an opportunity to learn from peers about their experience using this solution, share ideas, get up to date information on upcoming Kuali innovations, trade best practices and network with this vibrant community.

For those who will be attending the conference for the first time, we invite you to attend the introductory sessions which provides the what and why of Kuali. There will also be live demos and workshops for those users interested in each component of the Kuali site.
