JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-RANDOLPH, Texas --  

The 2024 Learning Professionals’ Consortium is open for registration with the event to take place virtually March 13-14.

Hosted by members of the Air Force Learning Professionals Program, the Learning Professionals’ Consortium is an opportunity to learn from the best practices and success stories of peers across the Department of Defense, industry, and academia, according to Dana Horn, AETC/A3BP Branch Chief.

Designed for Department of the Air Force learning professionals, attendees will discover solutions to learning challenges and gain insights into the latest trends and innovations in learning environments.

“Empowering Minds: Engineering a Learning Evolution is a fitting theme for this year’s event,” said Dr. Wendy Walsh, Air Education and Training Command chief learning officer. “I have attended the previous events and found the dynamic exchange of ideas and insights to be valuable. In today's rapidly evolving landscape, continuous learning is not just a necessity but a strategic imperative. This consortium provides a unique platform for learning professionals to connect, and I look forward to engaging with like-minded individuals, fostering a community of growth, and collectively shaping the future of learning.”

The consortium is designed for learning professionals to meet, interact, and collaborate on advances in learning environments, and according to Ms. Horn, “building a community of learning professionals who work together to accelerate the transformation of DAF learning operations is crucial.”

Registration for the event is open until March 4 here.

More information on the event including an agenda and presenter bios, as well as links to recordings from previous LPC events, can be found here.
