Using Technology to Prepare for Your Career
February 19-20, 2009
Our theme this year, Using Technology to Prepare for Your Career, will give both adult students and the educational professionals who work with them, some new insights about the latest technology for preparing students to enter their chosen career. Dr. Raylean Henry, the Executive Director of Operations for the Regents Online Campus Collaborative (ROCC), will share some of the latest services available in the state of Tenneessee for residents looking for a job. Her primary responsibilities include the coordination of central operations for all ROCC programs. Dr. Henry received her Doctorate of Education from Tennessee State University with a concentration in Curriculum and Instruction. Dr. Henry was the Director of the Regents Online Continuing Education (ROCE) program for 3 ½ years before becoming the Executive Director of Operations. Before coming to the Regents Online Campus Collaborative, Dr. Henry was the Director of Continuing Education at Tennessee State University in Nashville,
Tennessee.
Students
Encouraged to Attend the Conference
We also want to encourage you to bring as
many students as you possibly can to this conference because the theme is
designed to help them develop awareness of new programs and services available online at colleges and state agencies in Tennessee.
We have arranged a discounted conference fee for students
and the hotel will allow sharing up to four persons at the same
room rate. We believe that if every institution brings
at least one student to the conference, it will have a phenomenal
effect across our region. If you can bring more students, your
institution will benefit even more.
