Web Directions North

Web Directions North, one of the world’s leading conference for web professionals, returns for 2009 - this year in Denver, Colorado, February 2—7.

The focus on Web Directions has been, and remains, professional development. Featuring 8 half day workshops, the brand new full day Ed Directions North, for those teaching web professionals, and of course a two track, two day conference, featuring over 20 sessions.

We’ve kept the prices the same for the second year in a row - register for the conference by December 5 for just $795, and half day workshops for just $195 (for conference attendees).

Once again we’ve assembled an incredible lineup of experts, with practical real world experience, covering key technologies, standards and trends for web professionals.

Keeping up to date with rapidly changing industry developments in the current climate is vital, and there’s no better place you can do that than Web Directions.
