Type Of Events GazeL will feature
- An informal after hours networking event. The plan is to hold these monthly at a company or organization location rather than at a bar or restaurant. We would like to see these take place in Tucson and Phoenix. Hosts would pay for refreshments (no alcohol) and provide a $200.00 contribution to GAZeL. No program or presentation other than a brief welcome from GAZeL and the host, and a tour of the facility if appropriate.
- A eLearning Forum/Networking event that includes lunch, a program/forum, sponsors, etc. These would be presented bi-monthly.
- The CEO/Executive Forum. This will be a lunch rather than a breakfast as we have done in the past to accommodate people outside of Phoenix.
- An annual conference or Summit
Recent and pending events
- The Sokikom event on Sokikom’s Gamefication will be later in the year due to their conflicting schedules.
- The next tentative networking lunch event is being planned for late February on innovative technology and education programs in Arizona. We are trying to schedule Calvin Baker, Superintendent of Vail School District in Tucson and Rick Ogstan, Executive Director of Carpe Diem in Yuma.
- The CEO/Executive Forum that would be held in March. Maybe this will be a non-education theme such as talent management/employee training/motivational as a general business topic, mobile security (Symantec is interested), economic development (the new Arizona Economic development Authority), broadband deployment in Arizona (ATIC and State of Arizona), issues and challenges for eLearning enterprises, and others to be considered. Steve Peters asked Brent Schlenker to also help identify speakers.
