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.
