Starting in March, AEP will launch the Master Class Series, a series of courses for professionals across the learning resource industry. Each year, the course schedule will revolve around a specific issue.

Featuring both webinars and onsite events, the series is appropriate for content developers, editors, IT experts, assessment specialists, and marketing/communication professionals.
The 2013 courses will explore topics such as content choices for various digital tools, privacy laws, production strategies, and business models. Attendees will also gain a greater understanding of the key players such as the end-users, the decision-makers, the upstarts, and the creators of free content.
