Like all organizations, Training magazine has been tracking the Coronavirus (COVID-19) situation daily, and we have important news to share.
Given the uncertainties we face in the coming months, the collective time it will take our organizations to re-board, and, most importantly, the health and safety of conference participants, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the in-person TechLearn 2020 Conference in Austin.
We recognize the impact this decision will have on participants, sponsors, and presenters. However, a successful October conference requires many decisions to be made months in advance, and there are simply too many unknowns to reliably host a safe conference this fall.
Now, for some good news!
