ASTD can't wait for this year's International Conference and all the fabulous authors we have there to speak to, sign, and meet you! Today, we'd like to inform you of Jane Flagello, co-author of The Savvy Manager. Jane will be giving an enthralling author chat on how to "Savvy Up Your Training" on Monday, May 17th from 2:15 - 3:30 pm. Jane will be signing books after the chat, so don't leave to quickly! Haven't registered for the conference yet? Pre-registration ends Friday, May 7th, so do it now! Stay updated on more ICE news and events on the ICE Twitter page.
