There has been some “chatter” on different higher ed marketing websites lately about Portals. For those of you interested Gettysburg College is hosting the third annual Portal Conference from June 3 until June 6. The following text comes directly from the conference website:
“We have added an all-conference session on Thursday afternoon featuring Ray Henderson, vice president and chief products officer at Angel Learning. This has created a shift of some of the sessions on the schedule. We have 31 sessions and have a variety of presentations including a three-part technical Getting Started with uPortal, CRM Evolution at Gettysburg College, Porting the Portal, The Impact of Portals in Higher Education in 2008, Assessing Portalness: University of Georgia’s Measurement of Portal Assessment, uPortal Implementation Stories: Here’s How We Did It and many more.
