WHY IS THIS A CAN'T MISS EVENT?
According to Business Week, blogs and podcasts are "simply the most explosive outbreak in the information world since the Internet itself."

Several organizations are making dramatic strides in developing approaches and systems that work for them. The periodic sharing of these experiences and "best practices" is an important element in this social media evolution. That is why this forum, presented by the Advanced Learning Institute, is such a valuable opportunity to hear perspectives and share experiences of other professionals engaged in the "journey."
