The 2006 e-learning Development Conference

e-learning is fast becoming the wave of the future when it comes to attending classes and seminars. With improvements to the industry it is important for different organizations who utilize this learning technique to know what is available to them. With this in mind Rapid Intake, Inc, the e-learning development company that organizes and hosts the annual e-Learning Developers Conference, e-Learning DevCon, has begun accepting registrations for the August 7-9, 2006 event. While there are many other e-learning industry conferences, e-Learning DevCon offers a ?total value? approach unique to the industry. The conference focuses on the needs of e-learning developers, offering an in-depth look at the most relevant development tools, techniques, and training methods available today. Wanting to keep their outlook fresh and more precisely satisfy the needs of its attendees, organizers welcome suggestions for presentation topics on their website well before the conference begins.

Rapid Intake is continuing its unique approach to organizing e-Learning DevCon by holding the conference on a college campus but with an exciting twist this year. Former conferences have been held in the Northwest. This year?s conference will be held in a more central location, the site that boasts the Olympic Village, home to the 2002 Winter Olympians. Nestled in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, the campus is beautiful and isolated enough to allow concentrated learning while still being easily accessible to nearby city life. Attendees are offered award-winning food at the campus cafeteria and have the option of staying in air-conditioned dorm rooms or nearby hotels, one of which is located on the campus itself.

For e-Learning DevCon 2006, standard conference registration fees are $775, including meals. However, Rapid Intake offers discounts for early registrants, up to $175 for those registering before January 31st. The hope, organizers say, is that it will encourage people to itemize eLearning DevCon into their 2006 budget. Organizers anticipate that taking the same approach to the conference this year, as year?s previous will resonate with DevCon 2006 attendees. One past participant put it this way, ?Just want to say thanks, it was great! We were so energized by the conference, we can`t wait to start trying some of the new things we learned?. DevCon was by far the best conference I`ve ever attended for learning practical applications that can be put into use right away. I came away with the `how-to` and not just theory.?
