EDUCAUSE 2012 West/Southwest Regional Conference

EDUCAUSE regional conferences help you balance a tight travel budget with the value of meeting and exchanging information with peers. The West/Southwest Regional Conference, like the other EDUCAUSE regional conferences, offers nearby higher education IT professionals a smaller, more intimate version of the EDUCAUSE annual conference in a location that is easy and affordable to reach. If you live in the West, take this opportunity to learn, share, and connect with others in your field and from your part of the country.

The second annual EDUCAUSE West/Southwest Regional Conference will be held February 22-24, 2012, in Portland and simultaneously online. Take advantage of this opportunity to gather with colleagues in your region.

Higher education and IT are both changing and evolving rapidly. As part of this change and evolution, the importance of IT engagement is growing. How do we effectively engage in teaching and learning on our campuses and beyond campus as technology shrinks time and distance? In the spirit of this year’s conference theme, “Engaging Everyone Effectively,” we will look at ways to collaborate, lead, and assess IT’s role within higher ed as it continues to evolve. Join your colleagues and leaders in the higher ed IT community as we explore the many facets of IT engagement at the EDUCAUSE 2012 West/Southwest Regional Conference.
