AIR IPEDS Training Center

AIR is proud to support higher education professionals seeking to engage with IPEDS data—from new Keyholders to seasoned institutional researchers, analysts, and data-informed decision-makers. Whether you're submitting data, analyzing trends, or just trying to better understand the landscape, our training resources are here to help.

In response to the conclusion of federal funding—and in recognition of the extraordinary challenges facing higher education—AIR has committed to continuing this support at no cost to the field. We believe institutions should not lose access to high-quality IPEDS training, even in uncertain times.

These free offerings include live and on-demand workshops, short instructional videos, and an online community space. More resources, including updated Keyholder Courses and tutorials, are coming soon.
