And a few quick announcements...

American Society for Training & Development (ASTD) International Conference & Exposition (ICE)

I'm just off an ASTD ICE Planning Advisory Committee call. We're in the process of planning the conference orientation sessions for Washington DC.

Different orientation sessions are offered for English speakers versus non-English speakers.

There are two (2) ASTD ICE sessions scheduled for English speakers.

They are:

• Saturday, May 30th, 2009 - 5:00pm to 6:15pm ET
• Sunday, May 31st, 2009 - 9:45am to 11:00am ET

The orientation is to provide new conference goers with:

• An overview of the conference resources & logistics (e.g. orientation to the Program Guide; where to go to find what information; the flow of the conference, etc.)
• Networking opportunities (we're working on some icebreakers / breakouts)
• An understanding of conference offerings & suggestions on where they can get help (e.g. how do I plan my time? what's an innogizer? where can I get coffee? how can I ship stuff home? etc.)

I'm one of the Orientation presenters both days; stop by and say "Hi!"
