The L&D Community of Practice is pleased to announce the first-ever Brain-Based Learning Virtual Summit—A full day of brain-based learning virtual events, developed especially for learning and development practitioners.
This new virtual conference is built on the idea that how you train must be based on how learners learn. And now, you don’t have to be a brain scientist to take cutting-edge information from top research institutions, straight into the classroom.
Join ASTD, David Rock (Neuroleadership Institute), and neuroscience researchers from across the U.S. for this unique, complimentary online event. It features five top neuroscientists presenting new exciting research, side-by-side with practical tactics and how-tos for:
- Targeting adult memory to take learning retention to the next level.
- Strengthen goal-setting for behavior change.
- Creating more frequent, consistent “aha” moments in the classroom.
When: December 4, 2012, 11 am – 4:30 pm EST
Where: Online
*Update: For those who cannot attend the live event, the sessions will be available on demand beginning December 5, 2012.
Event Schedule: Four Sessions, 50 minutes each
Opening Keynote: 11 am – 11:30 am, Presented by David Rock, Co-Founder & Director, The Neuroleadership Group
