No longer can everyone do everything, and your continuing education division needs people dedicated to day-to-day operations so your revenue generators can do their jobs. The difference between success and failure for your program is just 5%. Efficient and effective operations make the difference and can help generate an over all staff productivity increase of 25% or more. That's why LERN created the unique [Operations and Staffing Institute](http://www.lern.org/institutes/operations-staffing.cfm). This year its being held in Fort Lauderdale, April 8-11. When you participate in this institute, you will find out what tasks operations, programming, marketing and sales should be responsible for, the role operations plays in making your staffing structure succeed, and how to make your continuing education division productive, creating more profit and success for your entire program.
