Top Ten Reasons to Attend the 2019 USDLA Conference

Blog Written by Elaine Shuck, USDLA Board Member

Nashville, TN

#1 Location, location, location.
This year’s event will take place in Nashville, Tennessee, best known for Nashville, country music and the Grand Ole Opry.  So, come and discover Nashville with your distance learning friends!

#2 Unmatched value.
I don’t know about you, but I go to a lot of conferences touching on education and training.  Well, this conference is different.  We’re the U.S. Distance Learning Association and here you have the entire spectrum of DL professionals learning from and sharing with each other.  Amazing things happen when you can learn from a community that is broader than your own.  You won’t find an event that offers this much content: stellar keynotes, first-rate presenters, an amazing array of distance learning exhibitors, and the best of the best, the winners of the prestigious USDLA Awards.

Take a look at the 2018 WINNERS!

#3 Network and connect.
At our conference, you’ll have the opportunity to engage with professionals spread across the country and around the world.  We are a passionate community of interests focused on distance learning in all its forms.  We work in K-20 education, corporate and government training and telemedicine.  You’ll return home equipped with new plans, tips, and tools to make a difference in your organization.

#4 Thirtysome years in distance learning.
One of the things that makes USDLA helpful and attractive to me is perspective.  Regardless of the constituency I’m engaged with and the media I use, I find I learn amazing lessons from those in other distance learning fields.

#5 Value for the money.
With a 4-day intensive conference schedule, you will access strategic knowledge and expertise that’s worth its weight in gold from an impressive array of recognized professionals.

#6 Be a part of the movement.
Don’t miss out on this opportunity to join professionals that have the vision, knowledge and experience to help us “Keep in Tune with the Future of Digital/Distance Learning.” Join us at the USDLA 2019 National Conference, May 20th – May 23rd in Nashville.  Learn more and register today.

#7 Mobile/Round Table Dinners.
Join us for a night on the town with your colleagues and board members to learn about the latest hot topics and about the association.

#8 Pre-Conference Workshops.
Join us for one Pre-Conference Workshop on Monday.  Learn more and register today!!

#9 USDLA membership opportunities.
Remember our invitation: “Come learn from a community that is broader than your own. Whatever your learning specialty, welcome home!” Join USDLA today!!

#10 Have FUN!
We understand the importance of social events.  That’s why we planned several to engage in some friendly conversations.  Whether attending the evening events, the annual memorial run/walk, or participating in the morning yoga.
