On Thursday, March 27, 2008, from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the City
Club of Washington, Franklin Square, 1300 "Eye" Street, N.W.,
Washington, D.C., OutStart and the Federal Government Distributed
Learning Association (FGDLA) will co-sponsor a seminar titled "All
Things Content."
All Things Content is an exclusive gathering of experts and
practitioners who will share know-how and develop ideas for creating
and delivering learning within government. The agenda for All Things
Content includes topics such as: creating content, building versus
buying content, learning standards, informal and formal learning, and
learning content management systems.
"As executives register for this event, they have a unique
opportunity to shape the existing agenda prior to coming," said Jeff
Whitney, vice president of marketing for OutStart. "That means
attendees can either add a topic - or rank those that have already
been added - to the agenda. It's a terrific way for us to get everyone
involved and ensure that the seminar is tailored to everyone's needs."
As experts and practitioners register online for All Things
Content, each registrant will receive a survey soliciting topics of
interest for discussion at the seminar.
