Aug 23 & 24, 2012 Graphic Design, UI/UX Design, and Visualization for eLearning
To be appealing and effective, most eLearning deliverables require more than just text and a few random graphics. eLearning requires good graphic design to be visually attractive and coherent, good user-interface design to ensure learners can access the content they need, and sometimes good visualization when explanations require more than words. This Online Forum will show you how to add these skills to your eLearning toolkit.

Oct 11 & 12, 2012 eLearning Trends and Research
The world of eLearning constantly changes. There always seems to be a new tool, research paper, or other Next Big Thing promising better, faster, cheaper.
