Rutgers University Center for Government Services is hosting the 56th Annual Public Purchasing Educational Forum. The Forum program offers purchasing professionals the latest and most relevant industry insights and the opportunity to earn up to 10 Continuing Education Units (CEUs). The forum is scheduled for April 28-30, 2026, at the Resorts Hotel and Casino, Atlantic City.
Additionally, you can earn 3 CEUs at a pre-conference seminar, "AI & Ethics: Navigating Responsibility in a Digital Age.” The three-hour session is designed to equip New Jersey government professionals with a practical understanding of the ethical considerations surrounding the use of artificial intelligence in the public sector. The session is on April 28 from 3:00-6:00 PM.
Rutgers Center for Government Services is also accepting submissions for the Valenti/Stanton Scholarship for the new Qualified Purchasing Agents (QPAs). The principal aim of this scholarship is to offer financial support to the recently certified QPAs to attend the Annual Rutgers University Public Purchasing Educational Forum.
