  • Updated TRENDS 2021 Program Available

    October 01, 2022

    The RCRI office has updated the TRENDS program to TRENDS 2021. 

    The NEW version of TRENDS is available now. This is an update to the program with changes in the matrix, and a couple of graphs or charts, the fix of a small “bug” in an earlier version, and now distributed on a USB drive.

    We are grateful to a committee of TRENDS experts who worked with the programmer to update and test the program.

    In addition to the Excel based software program, the matrix, MyTrends and the scenario analysis tool, the USB also includes a revised support manual and a pdf “Getting Started” file.

    For religious institutes that bought TRENDS 2015 or TRENDS 2013, the cost for the updated program, related files, postage and handling is $45. For institutes that do not have an earlier version of TRENDS, the cost for the software package is $650.00.

    Please be aware that the software is available only to religious institutes. It is protected by copyright.
