We know that 30 minutes of networking time before our chapter meetings just isn't enough, which is why we are working hard in 2010 to bring the networking and community directly to you through tools you may use every day, and introducing you to some you may not! 

LinkedIn.com

Check in with our LinkedIn group weekly for new discussion topics we'll post ranging from instructional design basics to ROI, eLearning development to organizational development, and LMS Hosting to web 2.0 technologies in learning.  We encouage you to join our group and add your own questions and thoughts and help us cultivate an online community to support each other between chapter meeings.  Membership to our LinkedIn group is limited to local MT ASTD members.  Looking for more information on what LinkedIn is?
