We are proud to announce that the first conference dedicated to the Microsoft Learning Gateway is to be held on 15 July 2009 in Birmingham, UK. It is promising to be the best education SharePoint event this year for both technical and non-technical staff. Whether you are a Network Manager, VLE Co-ordinator or Head Teacher you will find this conference an opportunity to learn from industry recognised experts speaking about the technical best practice of the Learning Gateway and how to get your staff, pupils and parents engaged and secure. In addition you'll be able to network with your peers and see how others are pushing forward their Gateway.

Whether you are running your own Learning Gateway or using a hosted solution such as LP+, Shirelands Learning Gateway or RM Kaleidos, you will find any one of the sessions useful to enhance your environment for all.
