EDUCAUSE Western Regional Conference 2008

One Size Doesn’t Fit All: Finding Practical and Innovative Solutions for Your Campus

Whether your focus is administrative services, information resources, teaching and learning, technology infrastructure, or management, you can benefit from attending the Fifth Annual Western Regional Conference, March 31–April 2, 2008. Join us at the InterContinental Mark Hopkins San Francisco to:

  • Hear from innovators and forward thinkers about current and emerging best practices in higher education information services
  • Connect with others in positions similar to yours to exchange experiences and explore ways to tackle common challenges
  • Learn about what’s going on in the profession and at the institutions in your area

This year’s conference "One Size Doesn’t Fit All: Finding Practical and Innovative Solutions for Your Campus," will explore the balance between institutional and individual user needs in an environment of rapid change. We’ll consider the impact of users and departments increasingly demanding flexible and individualized services, while at the same time accountability pressures require attention to legal and compliance issues.

The full conference program will be held March 31–April 2, 2008, with preconference seminars March 31 and postconference seminars April 2. The program will follow these key topic areas:

  • Engaging Today's Learners
  • Leadership and Management Challenges: Rapid Change, New Demands, and Limited Resources
  • New Models for Providing Technology Services
  • Corporate and Campus Solutions

Make the most of your visit to the City by the Bay! The InterContinental Mark Hopkins is located at the top of Nob Hill, with a variety of attractions, shopping, and restaurants just a short walk away.
