OLC’s Spotlight on Learning: Becoming Agents of Change conference was a big success!
We’d like to thank the over 400 attendees, presenters, speakers, volunteers, funders and all others who helped out with this great event. Spotlight on Learning attendees included representatives from every province and territory.
We hope all of those who attended came away inspired with thoughts and ideas about how you and your organization can become even more influential Agents of Change in your field.
We have received great feedback from the conference, particularly online. Below are links to people/organizations who have blogged about Spotlight on Learning:

Now that the conference is over we want to keep learning going and maintain the momentum. To do this, we will be creating an interactive learning page on the conference website to exchange ideas and continue learning.
Did you build new partnerships, use new technology or develop new ideas? Share your story with us by:
- Writing a blog or commenting on the OLC blog (we also invite you to write guest post on this blog, if interested)
- Preparing a short presentation for your peers and sharing it on the interactive learning page
- Creating a short video and linking it on social networking sites
Continued learning supports the theme of the 2010 conference, ‘Becoming Agents of Change’ and allows us to follow stories of change after the conference is over.
Thank you for helping to shine a spotlight on learning!
