PRORAGIS at Congress
Opportunities to learn how to complete your proﬁle,
generate new reports, and more!

P

RORAGIS, ﬁrst launched in January 2011, is an online database and

management tool designed speciﬁcally for park and recreation departments. As more departments contribute information to the database, NRPA has had the opportunity to implement upgrades to the system.
These enhancements add considerable power to the functionality of the
reporting features and the ease with which data is uploaded.

What to expect at Congress?
At Congress 2012, NRPA will unveil
important updates to PRORAGIS-
including the overall appearance of
PRORAGIS, new options for submitting data, and specialized reporting
features.

Attend one of the PRORAGIS
Education Sessions to discuss the
steps for completing a proﬁle and how
PRORAGIS can improve your department's ability to identify benchmarking
partners, justify budgets, and improve
marketing.
