Welcome to the most exciting week of the year in lifelong learning!
Sessions To Light Up Your Program
Our field is changing rapidly now. The next three days feature the latest, most advanced, practical how-to tips and strategies in the field on marketing, programming, management, finance, digital promotion and more.
Our conference makes you money. Take home tips for a big ROI.
Just One Tip
Just one tip can make your program thousands of dollars. Carolyn Madzar of Marlborough, MA said she got a tip at a recent LERN conference that made her an additional $1,800 in profit twice a year from just one class. That would be more than $10,000 over three years; not just in more income, but pure profit.

Today’s Keynoter
Ken Nwadike Jr. “Making Change”
You Vote at Lunch Today
Today’s luncheon will have you vote on the most important new topics you think LERN should research in the coming year. Plus seating by a fun “Granfalloon” topic, like “I like the Game of Thrones” or “My Cat Can Scare Your Dog.”
More Panel Sessions
Today we have more panel sessions than ever before featuring your fellow colleagues.
Roundtables
Every session we have two different Roundtable topics in the Greene and Pulaski rooms on the first Floor.
Every session good, but okay to walk out
Every session in the conference is good. But not every session may be right for you and your program.
If, after the first 10 minutes, a session is not meeting your needs, simply get up and go to another. We’ve got plenty of advanced, practical sessions for you.

Tough choices
The biggest complaint from conference participants: too many good sessions to choose from. We like that “complaint.”
If the session is filled sit on the floor, or attend another terrific session.
We have plenty of other great sessions.
New! Sessions
We have 24 new concurrent sessions today, and 8 hot classic sessions.
