Focus
YOUR FOCUS
is your customers.
You
OUR FOCUS
is you.
You and your staff work hard to provide the best possible
foodservice program for your customers. As your professional association, our job is to help. For more than 50 years, the National Association of College & University Food Services has been supporting the college and university foodservice industry by providing members with the programs and resources they need to excel—from benchmarking and best practices to educational programming and professional networking. At a NACUFS member organization, each and every staff member enjoys access to the many programs and resources the association has to offer. Participation in NACUFS benefits the industry, the association, the institution, and the individual. This school year, be sure to take advantage of all of the many ways NACUFS can help you advance your program and your career.
ADVANCE Your Career
Continuous professional development is a critical factor in the success of today’s foodservice professional. For that reason, education is at the core of NACUFS and the association offers a broad range of professional development opportunities designed to help foodservice professionals at all levels. By arming yourself with the latest information, trends, and techniques, you can contribute more effectively to your organization’s success and, at the same time, advance your own career. Whether it’s attending a national or regional conference, an intensive institute program, or a workshop or symposium, you have the opportunity to learn from industry experts and share best practices with your peers. Live webinars and on-demand courses bring the latest information directly to you, providing additional cost-effective education options for you and your staff. Learn more at www.nacufs.org/education.
STRENGTHEN Your Program
Managing a foodservice operation is no easy task, and one that gets more and more complex each year. However, having the right tools at your disposal can make you more efficient and productive. NACUFS members can take advantage of our considerable catalogue of information and resources that can help you strengthen your foodservice program and improve your bottom line. NACUFS’ benchmarking surveys will help you identify performance strengths and opportunities for improvement in the areas of productivity, customer satisfaction, and employee compensation. Apply industry best practices to your program with the help of the Professional Practices Manual and NACUFS Sustainability Guide. And stay updated on the industry with association publications like the e-newsletter and Campus Dining Today. Learn more at www.nacufs.org/resources.
SHOWCASE Your Success
Collegiate foodservice is a demanding profession worthy of special attention. The many NACUFS awards and recognition opportunities celebrate the people and programs that epitomize success in campus dining. The prestigious Loyal E. Horton Dining Awards recognize exemplary menus, presentations, special event planning, and dining concepts. Food takes center stage with the Nutrition Awards and Culinary Challenge. The C-Store Best in the Business Awards focus on excellence in campus retail operations. New this year, the Sustainability Awards will honor members that demonstrate outstanding leadership in promoting environmental sustainability on campus. And each year, the association shows its appreciation to those who demonstrate outstanding service to the association and the industry by bestowing individual awards. Learn more at www.nacufs.org/recognition.

NACUFS
is more than just an association.
It’s a
Community
COMMUNITY.
At its core, NACUFS is a community of people who are passionate about what they do. The association’s culture of connectivity encourages personal and professional growth, and facilitates the lifelong professional relationships and friendships that characterize the association.
BUILD YOUR PROFESSIONAL NETWORK. Through our array of educational programs, online services, national and regional conferences, and volunteer opportunities, NACUFS provides members with unmatched opportunities to develop valuable, lasting professional connections with an extensive network of peers. The NACUFS community is comprised of thousands of professionals at all levels— from managers and culinary experts that staff campus dining departments to industry representatives from the companies that provide the products and services needed to maintain a successful foodservice program. Whether in the association’s online communities, onsite professional development programs, or service as a volunteer, there are a wealth of opportunities for you to connect with other foodservice professionals to ask questions, receive feedback, and share ideas and resources.
CORE PURPOSE To foster exceptional campus dining programs through a passion for food and service and by leadership in education, professional development,
GET INVOLVED. NACUFS is driven by the varied and changing needs of its members. As a volunteer, you have the opportunity to actively engage in activities that are important to the association’s future, keeping it relevant and ensuring that it offers the programs and resources you need. This won’t just help move the association forward—it will help you hone your skills and expertise, and create lasting relationships with your peers.
networking, information exchange, and
Association Leadership
innovation in a culture of volunteerism.
A great organization relies on great leadership. Institutional members can serve the association by running for a leadership position at either the regional or national level. Regional council members develop programming within their region and regional presidents serve on the national board of directors, which governs overall association policies and procedures.
CORE VALUES Integrity Inclusiveness Continuous Improvement Critical Thinking Responsiveness
PORTFOLIO OF EXCELLENCE Education Networking Information Exchange Benchmarking Recognition Food Innovation Volunteerism
Industry members are important to the growth and success of the association. For this reason, the chair of the Industry Advisory Council assumes a prominent leadership role within the association as a voting member of the board of directors. In addition, each regional council and most national committees include an industry liaison.
Committees and Project Teams NACUFS programs and services are driven by the volunteers who serve on the association’s many committees and project teams. Whatever your interest—education, marketing, membership, benchmarking, nutrition, awards and more—there is a standing national or regional committee that can use your talents. NACUFS also periodically creates new programs or services, or revises old ones. To accomplish these tasks, an ad-hoc committee or special project team is brought together for the duration of the project.
Be a Virtual Volunteer If you need a volunteer experience that doesn’t require a great deal of time or travel, NACUFS also has many opportunities to lend a hand online.
Share Your Expertise Write an article for publication in Campus Dining Today or the association’s e-newsletter; present an interest session at a conference or educational program; or assist your peers by serving on a management consulting or professional practices visitation team.
