August 19-20, 2026 | Overland Park, KS
Hands-On Learning + Certified Professional Designation
Coming off of our successful VQ26 where attendees who went through QES® training received a certified user designation, we are bringing that same certification course to you in Overland Park, KS!
Our Advanced Network Analytics Workshop is a dedicated, hands-on experience built to help you go deeper in Quest Analytics’ solutions and leave ready to act. Expect interactive learning labs and workflow-driven sessions led by Quest Analytics SMEs — designed for real-world application, not theory. You’ll expand your expertise, increase your efficiency and discover how to maximize the functionality and insights built within our platform.
Totally immersive experience
In the Advanced Network Analytics Workshop, you’ll work alongside peers and Quest Analytics experts to deepen your understanding of the full QES ecosystem. Through collaborative exercises and real world scenarios, you’ll learn to build, manage, and optimize high performing provider networks with greater confidence and efficiency.
Earn your QES® Certified Professional designation
The Quest Certified Professional program is a new, hands on certification initially offered at Vision Quest 2026 and now at our Advanced Network Analytics Workshop. It recognizes individuals who complete our learning labs designed to deepen expertise in QES and provider network strategy.
Certified Professionals gain:
- Enhanced technical and strategic skills
- Increased value to your organization and career growth potential
- Access to exclusive content and certified only learning opportunities throughout the year
You are in the driver’s seat
The Quest Analytics’ team has created a series of network management scenarios (based on real client challenges and experiences) for you to solve in small group interactive learning labs. You will work together, share best practices, and gain insights from your peers. Together you will tackle the tasks, expand your skill set, gain workflow efficiencies, and make new network connections along the way.
Core Sessions
Throughout the day, you’ll move through QES end to end, including:
- Provider Hub to take a provider centric view of network impact and surface data issues
- Network Integrity Dashboard to quantify data challenges and evaluate how networks compare, evolve, and improve
- Accuracy tools — from foundational to advanced levels — to sharpen your ability to elevate directory quality
- Enterprise Compliance Dashboard to compare networks side by side, assess how they can grow and adapt, and understand how network changes drive stronger member outcomes
- Compliance & Decision Support workflows that culminate in a mock CMS ready exception request
Influence future Quest Analytics product innovations
Following the interactive labs, you’ll break down lessons learned, learn how other teams solved the task, and provide insights on the QES functionality. You’ll also get a preview of what’s coming next on our product roadmap and how we’re envisioning QES across the enterprise workflow. Our innovations are built on client feedback, and we want to hear yours.
What more could you ask for?
Not only will you get everything mentioned above, but you will also enjoy networking with your peers at the welcome reception. On top of that, we understand conference budgets are limited. So, we wanted to make it easier for you to attend by keeping registration at $600 per person.
