Brent Schlenker is Keynote for eLearning DevCon 2007

One more post here, to highlight the decision to ask Brent Schlenker to be the keynote for eLearning DevCon 2007. Brent has presented twice at DevCon before and has been one of the most popular presenters. He is a widely revered expert in Web 2.0 technologies and their impact on corporate learning trends.

You may remember, Brent was the person that Kevin Kruse gave $100 to for blogging his keynote last year. So he lives what he preaches!

Also, last year there were so many people in Brent's presentation I thought the fire marshal was going to show up at any minute and haul us all away. I personally never got to see his presentation, so I suppose there's a little in it for me. As the keynote, at least I'll be able to actually get to see Brent's presentation this year.

Take a look at Brent's presentation as well as others that we have scheduled already. Lots more to come!

eLearning DevCon 2007 - Dates and Call for Presentations

We've made final decisions on the dates for eLearning DevCon 2007. The official eLearning Developers Conference will be July 16-18, held at the University of Utah, in Salt Lake City, Utah.

We've also made our first call for presentations.

If you are interested in presenting at eLearning DevCon 2007, submit a proposal at www.elearndevcon.com. If your proposal is submitted and accepted by 1/9/2007, as a thank you we will provide you with a complimentary pass to the conference, pay for all of your meals, and we'll pay for your lodging at the residence halls at the conference. We've had some great presenters in past years and I expect we'll have an equally great lineup this for 2007.

Registrations will open on 12/15. Check back at www.elearndevcon.com soon for up to $150 off when you register early. And, check out who is going to be our keynote next year! Coming up soon!
