Oil Sands and Innovations in Learning

It's shaping up to be a busy fall for the dominKnow team, including several road trips for us in addition to development work on the dominKnow Learning Content Management System (LCMS) and our services team's custom courseware work.

Two events we're looking forward to in September are the Oil Sands Trade Show and Conference in Edmonton, Alberta on Sept. 19-20 and the Innovations in Learning Conference in Santa Clara, California on Sept. 24-27.

The Oil Sands Trade Show and Conference will give us a chance to once again meet with folks in the oil and gas industry in Alberta.

This industry is struggling with many growth pains, including a shortage of trained and qualified workers, and we feel that e-learning is a very powerful tool to help address many aspects of this issue. We'll be at booth 573 at the Northlands AgriCom.

The Innovations in Learning Conference, set for the following week, is an event that has the instructional designers among us quite excited. We're attending as part of a contingent of Canadian e-learning companies under the auspices of the Canadian eLearning Enterprise Alliance (CeLEA). We'll be providing a short presentation on the dominKnow LCMS during the Canadian E-Learning Showcase scheduled for the afternoon of Tuesday, Sept. 25.

We're looking forward to the "non-trade show" approach of the event's Conference Café, and, we must admit, there is also some interest in the wine-tasting on the Santa Cruz Pier.

Look us up if you're planning on attending the conference or even just the wine tasting!
