Registration
Because Learning Forward values presenters’ participation throughout the conference, all presenters and co-presenters are required to register by September 30, 2019. If you have any questions, please contact us at conferenceinfo@learningforward.org or 972-421-0900.
Housing
Housing is not included in the conference registration process. Rooms fill up quickly, so make your reservation as early as possible.
Room set up and Audiovisual equipment
All meeting rooms are set in rounds of 6-8. The room will be set with AV within an hour before the session start time.
Learning Forward will provide all concurrent session rooms with a screen, LCD projector, and wireless Internet connectivity. Concurrent sessions with 45 or more participants will be provided with a computer audio patch and one microphone.
Any other AV equipment needed must be ordered through the conference AV provider. Associated costs are the responsibility of the presenters. This includes but is not limited to an hardwire connection, flip chart, easel pad, and markers, or other equipment. Use this link to access the Freeman order form. All requests and payment for additional AV are handled directly with Freeman.
Handouts
Presenters are strongly encouraged to make handouts available online for conference attendees. Details regarding electronic handout submission will be available in November.
The level of intellectual stimulation and dialogue is unparalleled. There is always someone nearby or at your table who can help process new ideas or help you think about how what you’re hearing applies to your work. The balance of research and application is really nice. Getting to hear from top authors about their current projects helps me feel very informed so that I can feel abreast of current trends in the professional learning field. At the same time, the balance of topics that are “oldies but goodies” is nice because there are always new practitioners joining the conference.
