Conference Learning Opportunities
When making the important decision to attend a conference, you want to ensure you build a week of learning that makes the most of your time and educational budget. Are you looking to dive deep into specific topics or are you more looking to get an overview of the latest ideas without spending too much time on each one? To that end, we want to help familiarize you with the types of learning opportunities at our conferences so you can build a perfect week of learning customized to your specific needs.
Pre-Conference Training
Pre-Conference training is led by respected experts with years of practical experience. Due to the length of the training class, this is the most in-depth you can get into a topic at a conference. Many training classes offer a certification at the end of the course (method of certification will vary by class selected.)
Tutorials
Full- and half-day tutorials are consistently one of the most popular and highly-rated parts of an attendee’s experience. Tutorials allow for several hours to delve deeply into a particular subject and often offer hands-on or group exercises. Tutorials packages are priced by the day versus by the tutorial itself.
Concurrent Sessions
Concurrent sessions offer attendees the flexibility to explore a variety of topics throughout the day. Topics will be varied and due to the shorter length will offer more quick takeaways, foundations, and methods rather than deep dives.
Keynotes
Keynotes are included in all passes, and are opportunities for industry visionaries to share their experience, top takeaways, and lessons learned from the trenches. Keynotes are usually offered on broader topics that will appeal to all conference attendees and should not be missed.
Industry Technical Presentations
Industry Technical Presentations are sponsored sessions where attendees can learn about the latest and greatest software solutions to help them succeed in their role. Industry Technical Presentations may or may not include a demo and are a great way to explore which solutions providers you may want to learn more about.
Leadership Summit
The Leadership Summit is an interactive all-day exchange of ideas and experiences. Discover how seasoned leaders have grown their leadership skills and what they believe are the keys to becoming exceptional leaders.
