Distinguished Lecturers
In addition to the 3 keynote speakers we are bringing to Pearson CiTE this year, we have lined up a collection of industry experts who will speak as part of the "Distinguished Lecturer" series. This series provides a high-level perspective of the state of education, technology and online learning appropriate to an executive level audience. Our conference breakout sessions speak to the needs of our educator audience, so these presentations will be held during key timeframes concurrent to the conference breakout sessions to accommodate the interests of the executive audience.
