With the wide array of overpriced corporate learning conferences out there, it’s encouraging to see that George Siemens has pulled together an impressive line-up of speakers to be featured at a free online conference: Corporate Learning: Trends and Innovations.
The conference will run from November 15 to November 20 and will be hosted by Complexive Systems. Sponsors include Duke Corporate Education, TechEmpower, Q2Learning, and Elluminate. Aside from Siemens himself, the speaking roster includes other well-known names in the learning space like Tony Karrer and Jay Cross.
The whole thing is free, but you have to register. Thanks to ZaidLearn for tipping me off to this conference.
Along related lines, the ASAE online e-learning conference is wrapping up today. One of the resources that I prepared for it and will continue to maintain is an array of Del.icio.us URLs for Learning 2.0 related tags. I am trying to make these more about quality that quantity, so the array of links at each URL is not terribly long. I will be adding to and subtracting from them over time.
