Learning & Development Conferences for 2017
/Wrong year? Here’s our list of 2021 Learning & Development Conferences.
It’s a new year—a great time to assess our learning and see where we can make new progress. At Limestone Learning we believe that keeping up with the latest training developments is the best way to do our job—helping our clients educate their employees.
Every month we publish a list of free webinars offering instruction across a wide range of topics, and we like to point out other resources such as white papers, research articles, industry tweets, and online certification courses—all great ways to access educational material and stay current. But it’s also worth looking at larger events offered throughout North America and elsewhere. They provide the opportunity to meet industry experts in person and learn firsthand about the latest research and trends. They’re also a great networking opportunity for learning professionals to build synergy with their peers.
We’re all very busy and sometimes don’t find out what conferences are being offered until it’s too late. To help you seize these opportunities before they go by, we’ve compiled a list of links to a number of popular L&D conferences being offered in 2017. We hope they inspire you!
