Why You Should Attend this Year
The old world of the Industrial Age is rapidly giving way to the Information Age of the 21st century. The old rules for success don’t work anymore. Only the LERN Institutes can give you and your staff the professional development to stay competitive and successful in this new environment. Here’s why you
should attend:

  • Learn the new rules for success. Find out how to segment and target your audiences. Learn how to improve profit margins by using the LERN financial format, the industry standard for lifelong learning.
  • Discover new processes and systems. There are answers for every one of your challenges, not just the easy ones. At the LERN Institutes, you’ll discover the ways to find the best answers for your program.
  • Stay ahead of the competition. The programs that will be successful in the future will be those with the best trained professional staff members. Get the
    most comprehensive, intensive and sophisticated professional development available.

Second Person Half Price!
Bring a second person from your program for just half the regular price. The second person can attend any Institute.
Use our Institutes to brainstorm with each other at the end of the day. Attend two different Institutes and get twice the information for your program. Compare notes and bring back ideas to improve your operation. The second person pays just $497 if a LERN member, and only $597 if a non-member.
