“The Communitelligence Learning Academy is a natural next step in our site vision,” says John Gerstner, president of Communitelligence. “We’re tapping the talents and knowledge of our 30-plus community leaders to develop courses that squarely address the trends, issues and challenges facing communicators. We’re also working with a number of universities to offer online continuing education and graduate courses to help communicators stay on top of their increasingly complex and technology-driven profession.”
Starting October 25, 2005, Communitelligence will unveil a new line of teleseminars, featuring a strong lineup of top-rated speakers, including Don Ranly, Carol Kinsey Goman, Brenda Siler and Diane Gayeski.
