The team at Bloomfire (official site: http://bit.ly/9EaLnx) is offering the E-Learning Council community exclusive free early-bird access to their upcoming webinar, Collaborative Learning 101. Our last webinar, How to Build High-Impact Learning Communities, was so popular that we had to switch webinar platforms to accommodate everyone.

This webinar features the talk that Bloomfire’s founder, Josh Little, was invited to present at three major conferences in the past few months:

• Learning Solutions 2010 by The eLearning Guild
• eLearning DevCon 2010
• The International Conference on E-Learning in the Workplace (ICELW).

Here’s what some attendees have said about his talks:

“Brilliant lecture. I love the learn or die philosophy.” – Andy Hughes, Instructor, University of Cincinnati

“Shame more people aren’t watching Josh at ICELW. He’s brilliant already!” – Melanie, ICELW attendee

“I see that Josh is presentin at DevLearn2010. Awesome. Too bad we are presenting the same day or I would definitely be there.” – Terrence Wing, ASTD National Committee Member and CLO of Liquid Learn

Limited space available, so whether or not you can make it, at least save yourself a free early-bird spot. Click here to learn more: http://bit.ly/9EaLnx (navigate to the Webinars heading)
