Initiate Academic Change Through the Learning Technology Leadership ProgramCreated by James Berg (EDUCAUSE) on February 21, 2012
The EDUCAUSE Institute's Learning Technology Leadership program, June 25–29, in Atlanta, prepares learning technology professionals to take the next level of leadership on their campuses.

"I took away 'gems' from every session and something I could apply when I get back or continue to work on." "This program was professionally and personally invigorating.

Today's college students, in my opinion, will perform considerably better in postmodern institutions. We are now in an era where college students embrace and gladly welcome an education that reflects the changes in new and emerging technology. Institutions have an obligation to provide learning enviroments that are indicative of those changes.
