If your organization is interested in learning how best to harness the power and reach of web 2.0 engagement tools, you have a conference to attend.It’s the Social Tech Training 2009 conference hosted at the MaRS Centre in downtown Toronto. The conference is the second one hosted by Web of Change organization and a group of partner organizations including Communicipia and Social Innovation Generation @MaRS.

You can learn more about this major event by visiting the registration page. Please note that this conference is a feature event during Net Change, a week long event embracing social tech training and social change makers. Dates for this event are: June 10 – 12, 2009.Last summer, I attended the first Social Tech Training Conference (STT) and the experience changed my life. I’ve attended many learning events over the past twenty years but none like this.

The STT 2008 conference brought together so many talented and creative people from all over North America to share knowledge and strategies for using web 2.0 tools for social change. From that experience, I decided to invest my energies and creativity into working with organizations as a social media consultant.

I’m so pleased to have participated in this training. The community that evolved from STT 2008 continues to be a source of inspiration and guidance as I work with local York Region organizations seeking more effective ways to engage their constituents.

Here is a short advomentary that highlights the STT 2008 Conference.
