2026 Athena by Versaterm Training Symposium

The 2026 Athena by Versaterm Training Symposium is a one-day, in-person training experience designed for public safety professionals who want to deepen their understanding and strengthen how their teams work every day.

This symposium brings Athena by Versaterm users together for focused learning, shared context and practical application. Sessions will help attendees move beyond knowing where things live in the system to understanding how workflows connect, how reporting behaves and what supports confident, consistent operations across roles.

Why Attend

Public safety teams rely on accurate data, consistent processes and shared understanding. As reporting requirements evolve and workflows grow more complex, having clarity on how systems are used across roles becomes increasingly important.

This is not about learning everything. It is about learning what matters most, learning it well and strengthening how Athena by Versaterm software is used today and preparing users for what is ahead.

This symposium is designed to help attendees:

  • Build confidence in daily workflows
  • Improve consistency and accuracy in reporting
  • Reduce rework and uncertainty across roles
  • Apply best practices they can take back and share with their teams

Who Should Attend?

Sessions are tailored by role and experience level, allowing attendees to focus on what is most relevant to their responsibilities. This Training Symposium is designed for users across public safety departments, including:

Records staff

Officers and patrol users

Dispatchers

Supervisors and administrators

What You Will Learn

Training is delivered through a mix of classroom instruction, plenary sessions and extended breakout discussions, with time built in for questions and deeper exploration. Sessions are built around real-world use of Athena by Versaterm software and the questions users encounter in daily operations. Topics include:

RMS workflows, including incident and arrest reporting

CAD and MDC mapping and how mapping supports situational awareness

Reporting outputs, parameters and how to interpret results with confidence

User roles, system access and administrative considerations

Reporting and compliance considerations, including upcoming NIBRS updates

End-to-end workflows across roles and how data moves from call to report to outcome
