Elearning Events Updated for 2009

Posted on January 1, 2009 by Tom King

The Elearning Events Calendar is updated with key elearning conferences and trade shows from January 2009 – June 2009. I didn’t do a good job of updating it from August-December 2008, but I’ll try to be better. If you are aware of a conference I missed, send an invite or email to events(at)mobilemind.net and I’ll add it soon after I hear from you.

I’ve added events from AICC, ADL, Articulate, eLearning Guild, I/ITSEC, IMS Global, the Masie Center, Questionmark, SumTotal, Training Magazine, and more. I’ll add links for the Plateau and Saba conferences when details become available (they are usually in Fall).

I also moved the calendar to a separate page to make it easier to read and navigate. The link to the new page is in the header navigation of my site as Events, as well as the first link in the opening paragraph of this post.

Happy New Year 2009.

    Thanks Nina. As of today, your note seems to be the only information available on this event.

    I'll post it to the calendar, but would like to have a link for people to learn about the event, how to participate, etc.

    I can't find anything to link to for more information.

    no luck here with Google site search

    Maybe someone can send me more information?

    Meantime, those are good ways for others to re-visit in case more information becomes available.
