As we pack up this semester/quarter and look forward to a holiday break in classes, I want to remind you that the February event for postsecondary Deans and Directors is closer than you think! Our hotel block is only held until February 1, 2013 and there will be some airfares worth looking at after the holidays.
Keep in mind: This is your strategic planning training and stimulation for action in order to keep ahead of the higher education roller coaster that we are riding.
20/20 Vision is a program designed to help you:
Consider the future of postsecondary education
Hear about megatrends and learn how to recognize them
Immerse yourself is immersive virtual training modules
Hear from an on-line culinary program which already sees the compatibility of hands on with significant on-line classroom experience
Think about the future in a brand-new way with nationally recognized Futurist Jack Uldrich from the School of Unlearning
Re-design and re-think your presentation style: tips and tricks!
For on-line registration, hotel information, and an overview/agenda of the February 22-24, 2013 event in Chicago, go to www.cafemeetingplace.com/2020-vision.html
Don’t put off registering! This event is limited to 50 people. You can mark “Bill Me” on your registration in order to save your place.
Don’t forget to think about applying for an Idaho Potato Commission Innovation Award or the CAFÉ/Kendall College Green Award by going to http://cafemeetingplace.com/scholarshipsawards.html (Deadline April 1, 2013)
