If you can’t join
your colleagues in Vegas, perhaps you would like to be there in spirit
by taking part in these two live Webcasts, presented on Wednesday May
18 as part of the AIA/CES Registered Provider Conference, held in conjunction
with the AIA National Convention and Design Expo. Both hour-long Webcasts—“Nine
Shift: From Cheating to Collaboration” and “Forecasting Programs
and Markets”—are offered by the conference’s keynote
speakers and offer one Learning Unit.
CESW01 Nine Shift: From Cheating to Collaboration
Wednesday, May 18, 8:30–9:30 a.m.
In the next 20 years, approximately 75 percent of our lives will change
dramatically. We know this because it happened once before, between 1900
and 1920. In both periods, a new technology becomes dominant and results
in great change. The book, Nine Shift, reveals the uncanny similarities
between today and 100 years ago, examining the parallel changes that
occur in the two transition periods and the resulting forces that restructure
society and a new economic era. Come explore the excitement of the 21st
century.
Join presenter William A. Draves, president of the Learning Education
Research Network and author of Nine
Shift for this session, which will
address the nine major shifts currently taking place in business, life,
and education and the implications of each of these shifts. (If you are
one of the first 100 people to register for just the Nine Shift session
or both sessions together, receive your own free copy of the book Nine
Shift: Work, life and education in the 21st century. After registering,
send an email to info@lern.org requesting your free copy.
CESW08 Forecasting Programs and Markets
Wednesday, May 18, 1:15–2:15 p.m.
So, you think you’re an experienced marketer? Do you already know
how to maximize effectiveness and efficiency? Is it more effective to
do it faster and cheaper? Explore the practical side of applied research
with presenter Jack Tanis, PhD, director of applied research and sales
for Steelcase inc.
This session will address the major differences between effectiveness
and efficiency, as well as the implications of emphasizing effectiveness
and efficiency on your next program and market.
