61 I L T A N E T . O R G Announcing the 2022 Programming Priorities Each year the senior volunteer leadership team – the Program Planning Council – meets to reflect on the current state of the industry. Looking forward, researching trends, and asking those within their networks the council then determines key priorities for the upcoming year. The purpose of these priorities is to provide a framework to all of ILTA's essential volunteer groups. With these, ILTA can provide unified programming and content throughout the year. These peer-led teams continue to produce the essential education they are tasked to complete, but they will sprinkle in programming aligned with these priorities. The goal is to develop a variety of formats where ILTAns can participate, consume, and learn on the topics most essential to their development and success, both personally and professionally. We encourage all to take these back to their individual groups and identify ways the support them – through conference sessions, publications, webinars, podcasts, (virtual, or hopefully in-person) local meetings, blogs, and more! For our Business Partners, we encourage you to review these priorities and discuss them with your colleagues. Ask: How can you contribute expertise and share insights related to these priorities? Your understanding of what organizations face and the solutions you can recommend are essential to the continued success of the legal tech industry. If anyone wants further details on these, or is interested in contributing content aligned with the 2022 Programming Priorities, please reach out to Nicole – nicole@iltanet.org.
