Operations is possibly the fastest growing area of lifelong learning programming right now. It is key to profitability.  The upcoming first-ever Operations Conference has great registrations already.  From the upcoming conference, here’s a sneak preview of the top 7 trends.

LERN Members generated more than 1,000 registrations for February UGotClass online courses, one of the best ever for the month.

Slowly, more and more local musicians joined the cause to create what would become Sanford’s weeklong summer camp for musically-minded students, mentored by local rock musicians.

We are both sad and grateful to Julia King Tamang and Fred Bayley for their work with LERN. They each did outstanding presentations at the big LERN annual conference in San Diego, unfortunately their last LERN conference.
