Get Ready for NIL Compliance

How to build the processes necessary to maintain NIL compliance and eligibility while improving your athlete experience and preparedness program. As we await the new Name, Image, Likeness (NIL) regulations, universities need to prepare now so they can empower student athletes to take advantage of NIL endorsements. Although we don’t yet know exactly what the NCAA NIL rules will be, colleges and universities will need to manage both the school’s and the student athletes’ NIL compliance. Athletic directors will need to find solutions to help: Protect student-athletes’ eligibility as they try to monetize their NIL rights Establish processes to disclose and track NIL opportunities Ensure compliance to help protect students and universities from liability Integrated NIL & Athlete Experience Programs Many university athletic departments have athlete experience programs designed to comprehensively develop student-athletes; promoting personal growth, professional development and athletic success. The NIL opportunity process will need to be integrated into these programs as well. Ideally, athletic directors will be able to re-launch an integrated digital and in-person student athlete experience program. There are holistic athlete development platforms designed to digitize and enhance these initiatives that also have built-in NIL compliance processes. Digital Athlete Experience and NIL Solutions One such platform, Performulus, launched with a mission to develop well-rounded student athletes who are prepared to succeed in their sport and in life after graduation, and now offers an NIL compliance solution as well.
