Welcome to Next-Gen.Edu!

This year, more than ever before, Campus Technology Conference and Expo can give you the tools to help your institution move forward into a new age of teaching and learning with technology.

Why You Should Attend

Campus Technology conference presenters are technologists, administrators, tech-savvy educators, and other innovative higher education professionals who are now focused on using cutting-edge, next-generation technologies, tools, and processes to drive the delivery of higher education to new heights.

This year, we’re offering a new “Inside the Technology” track and two “Tech Experience” workshops that guide attendees through the latest applications so that they can truly experience the technologies in use. And our unique “Innovators” track sessions are presented by the Campus Technology Innovator Award recipients themselves, ready to share their successes with you.

The interactive style and dynamic discussion formats of our varied session types—such as panels, Q&As, and guided learning workshops —will provide you with information relevant to your own campus challenges, the best of peer-to-peer learning in the ultimate collegial environment, and takeaways you can put into action the minute you return to campus.

You will discover a remarkable networking environment at Campus Technology 2008, which continues into the evening around historic, scenic Boston, teeming with wonderful eateries and sights. And on Monday, don’t miss the opportunity to join our exclusive group tours on the campus of MIT, where you’ll see the latest high-tech environments and research projects in education technology.

Who Should Attend

Because today’s most successful teaching and learning technology initiatives (and many of the campuswide technology efforts that support teaching and learning) are driven by cross-functional teams and collaborations, we encourage senior-level technologists, academic computing professionals, tech-savvy faculty and administrators, as well as those who find the funding for these projects, to attend. They may be CIOs, VPs of IT, provosts, deans, directors of academic computing, distance learning program directors and managers, instructional designers, teaching faculty, and others.

So, turn the page and scrutinize our amazingly rich program content: Campus Technology 2008 is the place to be this summer, to get up to speed on Next-Gen.Edu and make a real difference on your campus. (Don’t forget to register now to get our special Early Bird rate!)
