Gone are the days when a good grasp of HTML and some straightforward
usability knowledge would get the job done. It is now important
that a Web designer be comfortable with CSS, XML, Ajax, Web standards,
interaction design, information architecture, interface design,
search engine optimization, Flash, Flex, JavaScript, mobile design,
and much more.
At the Voices That Matter: Web Design conference, our lineup of
speakers will teach you and your students new techniques. Some will
show them how to avoid the potholes and pitfalls in how-to sessions;
still others will inspire them to try new pathways in creative,
energizing, thought-provoking, idea-driven sessions. For a full
list of sessions and registration info, visit
