ACCESS 2014 Conference

If you are working in the area of Distance Education, particularly if you are at a Christian institution which delivers distance education you should be planning on attending the ACCESS conference coming up on March 9-12 at Palm Atlantic Christian University.  I have attended these conferences for several years now and can definitely tell you that this is a group which believes in collegial support and networking.  The sessions are always useful, the networking is great and, hey, who doesn't want to visit Palm Atlantic in March?

The ACCESS website is www.accessed.org which has all the details of the event.  There is an announcement below about the Keynote address and the conference from the Executive Director of ACCESS, Dr. Mary Lowe, below:

From the Executive Director

The keynote address at ACCESS 2014 will be delivered by Dr. Phil Cooke. Phil is a “media guru,” someone who has his finger on the pulse of our digital culture. You won’t want to miss this opportunity to transform your thinking on perception, media, and the power of change.

Telling Your Story in Today's Digital Culture

About Phil:As an academic leader, educator, or administrator in today’s media-driven culture, the greatest challenge is getting your message heard.  No matter how important your subject, talent, skill, or message; if no one’s listening, then you’ve failed. What makes you stand out?  What makes you unique? Distance education is now and it’s time to make an impact but how can we connect with people who need it the most.  The world is changing at the speed of light. At ACCESS we’ll look at today’s culture of disruptive change and learn how to use that to our advantage.

I'll look forward to seeing you there.
