Why Hybrid?
Covid has made a tremendous impact on how we approach professional development. To stay flexible to the needs of all attendees, ACOT will have a hybrid element moving forward.
What exactly does that mean?
We will continue to have in-person conferences just like we have in the past. After all, techs love to get out of the office! (It's a lot easier to learn when you are not answering the phone or working on tech issues.) That being said, we also realize that some of our guests may not be able to attend in real time. To help those techs we have created a pathway that allows them to attend sessions virtually through recordings. We will record all sessions and organize them within our Digital Attendee Hub for all of our guests. Now digital and traditional guests will have access to see every session hosted at ACOT. This digital hub has powerful tools that tie in with our lead retrieval suite.
