What’s New This Year
A few of the highlights of the conference this year:

  1. More practitioner panel sessions, by demand.
  2. Four ‘Engaged Sessions’ premiere with a whole new concurrent session format.
  3. FREE all-day preconference seminars of your choice if you stay in the LERN hotel room block for 3 nights.
  4. A leader in game development and now a nationally known business speaker, Scott Crabtree, keynotes the conference on “Gamify Your Leadership: What Leaders Can Learn from Game Designers”
  5. As always, more than 30 new advanced, practical, how-to concurrent sessions from the best experts.
  6. More Roundtables, by request.
    This year we will have a special intimate and quiet room for your Roundtables, so no trouble hearing your colleagues and moderators.
  7. Now 82 concurrent sessions in all, ten more than last year, in the same time span.
  8. Conference hotel right downtown. The excitement, sights, and sounds start the minute you walk out of the lobby.
  9. Weekly blog updates with more about the sessions, social events, opportunities to experience Portland, and more. Check it out here  http://blog.lern.org/lernannualconference
  10. ROI, big time. You will generate at least ten times what your registration fee is in increased income, more enrollments, and/or saved costs. It works every year. Our participants say so.
