Dear Colleague:

Please join your Federal, State and local government and business
partners at the Government Learning Technology Symposium (GLTS) being
held in Baltimore, Maryland on July 15-17, 2001. GLTS is focused on
sharing new information, experiences and lessons learned in using
learning technology in the government. There will be 27-30 workshops
and presentations on everything from multi-media training for basic
skills to virtual universities. You may also attend the one-day
pre-conference on learning management systems on Sunday, July 15,
2001. We think you will find GLTS both informative and stimulating.

GLTS is being convened as a conference within the Department of
Labor's Joint Employment and Training Technology Conference
(Jett*Con) at the Baltimore Convention Center. Plan to attend all 2
days filled with an opening plenary, networking reception, workshops
and a fun-filled evening at Camden Yards.
