Zoom e-Learning Networks is now accepting pre-registrations for the following executive series taking place in 2003 and 2004. All events take place in British Columbia, Canada. Locations are Quadra Island (an island in the Discover Passage off of Vancouver Island near Campbell River, a short flight from Vancouver) for Summer offerings and Whistler for Winter offerings (a two hour drive or short flight from Vancouver, BC). The format is to have between 2-4 workshop leaders and a maximum of 20 participants. The workshop leaders will be globally recognized experts in their workshop areas.

This series is primarily designed for executives or senior managers wishing to gain leading edge insight into important e-learning business and technology trends and meaningful networking with other executives in a relaxed and luxury retreat setting.
