Are you still relying on guesswork to create your education strategy?
The world of continuing education and professional development has changed dramatically in the past few years. To meet member needs and stay out in front of the competition, you need to arm yourself with real data targeted to help you grow your programs.
Association Learning + Technology: The State of the Sector provides the most comprehensive insights currently available on the use of technology to deliver education in the association sector. It is designed for association leaders who want to be fully informed as they make strategic decisions about launching or growing new education initiatives. It is equally valuable to vendors who serve or aim to serve the education needs of associations and their members.
The 121-page report is based upon a survey of 375 trade and professional associations as well as on extensive interviews with more than 30 associations and vendors. In addition to providing essential data and analysis, the report’s authors, Jeff Cobb and Celisa Steele offer valuable predictions as well as a range of questions to help organizations with setting strategy. For additional information on the report’s contents, we encourage you to download the table of contents and introduction.
The price for a single, digital copy of the report is $149. A version with data tables from our 2009 version is also available for $199. The report may be shared with up to 5 employees within the purchasing organization. For broader licenses or additional information about the report, please contact us.
Note: The report is available in digital format only. No hard copy will be sent.
