The 2025 VIM User Group & Training Event brought together environmental professionals, VIM customers, partners, and staff for three days of learning, collaboration, and connection in Charlotte, NC. Hosted at the Omni Charlotte Hotel, the event combined practical training, dynamic discussions, and exclusive experiences that left a lasting impact.
Training That Drives Real Results
Our training sessions focused on delivering actionable knowledge to help attendees tackle real-world compliance challenges. From deep dives into the latest VIM features to strategies for navigating complex regulations, participants gained tools and insights to strengthen their teams and processes. Engagement was outstanding. Attendees came ready to learn, share, and apply new ideas. Feedback was clear: the sessions were relevant, practical, and energizing.
User Group Conversations That Spark Innovation

Partners contributed with informative talks on compliance trends and best practices, adding valuable perspective to the discussions.
Chris Worley, Environmental Policy Analyst at the U.S. EPA, joined remotely to share an update on the ECPMS 2.0 Re-Engineering Project and answer audience questions, providing valuable regulatory insight and reinforcing the importance of industry collaboration. These sessions sparked ideas and strengthened our community.
Exclusive Experiences That Made It Memorable
