Learning Strategies to Prepare for the Future
Learning leaders are tasked with preparing their organizations for a constantly changing future landscape, even as learning leaders increasingly function as key members of their organizations’ leadership and strategic planning teams.
The Learning Leaders Forum is the place to discover the ideas and solutions that will help you meet the challenges of today—and collaborate with peers to build strategies to power your success in the months and years ahead.
What to Expect at the Forum
The Learning Leaders Forum is your opportunity to join a community of like-minded learning leaders, engage with industry experts, and collaborate on learning strategies that can solve the challenges our organizations face.
Join us for a full-day Forum and explore critical topics with handpicked industry experts. Examine case studies showcasing innovative learning strategies. And put your learning into context via facilitated discussions with your peers.
