National Trainers' Conference programme announced
The only conference of its type in Europe, the Institute of IT Training's National Trainers' Conference is for IT trainers and managers looking to grow their skills and keep up-to-date with the latest developments in the field.
Expanded in response to demand from last year's delegates, the one-day conference this year features no fewer than 15 sessions grouped in three streams: People and Performance, Techniques and Technologies, and Making Training More Effective.
Another added feature in this year's conference is a reception, giving delegates the chance to exchange ideas with their peers and make friends to keep in touch with throughout the year. This year's exhibition is also larger, with no fewer than 15 companies demonstrating the latest products and services in IT training.
Why Attend
With a delegate fee of £195, the conference represents exceptional value for money as a training event alone. In addition, delegates have the chance to network, to meet leading industry lights informally, and to visit the accompanying exhibition, providing access to the latest training products and services. Included in the price are: morning and afternoon refreshments, full lunch and conference materials, including a CD containing all presentations.
Who Should Attend
The IITT National Trainers' Conference is a must for IT trainers and training managers, HR managers and all those interested in keeping in touch with the latest developments in IT training.
Who is Speaking?
Speakers include leading industry thinkers and practitioners such as:
• Clive Shepherd
• Kathy Morris
• Alan Bellinger
• Julie Linn
• Professor Harry Scarborough
• Linda Galilee
The keynote address is given by Dave Snowden, Director of IBM's Cynefin Centre for Organisational Complexity.
The session, Learner-centric Training, argues that the training we deliver in the 21st Century needs to be far more focused on the way people work and think, and it is critical to recreate the shared culture and trust we once enjoyed to ensure that we transfer skills effectively. Dave seeks to bring humanity back to training through a rediscovery of the power of stories, community, and social capital.
