March Forward

Celebrate Women’s History Month with ELB Learning

Every Thursday in March  |  1 PM ET

This Women’s History Month, we’re highlighting the women who are shaping the future of learning and development (L&D).

Join ELB Learning® every Thursday in March for an inspiring webinar series featuring bold ideas, practical strategies, and fresh perspectives from impactful women in L&D. Think of it like a delightful equation: one part professional growth, plus one part future-focused insight, equals just enough momentum to carry you through the rest of the year feeling more confident, capable, and prepared for what’s next.

Across these four sessions, we’ll explore how women can lead through AI disruption, design learning that sticks, build careers with intention, and turn organizational insights into influence. 

Whether you’re here to learn something new, sharpen your strategy, or simply soak up the wisdom of leaders who’ve been there, you’ll walk away with tools you can use immediately (and inspiration that lingers long after you log off).

Save your Thursdays. Bring your curiosity. Let’s celebrate women in L&D together.

Women’s Leadership 2030: Turning AI Disruption Into Strategic Power

Thursday, March 5, 2026
1 pm ET
Speaker: Margaret Spence // Founder, The Inclusion Learning Lab

Between 2026 and 2030, AI won't just change how work gets done; it will quietly change who gets seen, selected, sponsored, and saved when roles are redesigned. For many women, the disruption won't arrive as a dramatic layoff. It will arrive as a workflow "optimization," a new AI toolchain, and a decision made without a conversation. 

In this future-focused session, we’ll pinpoint what AI is disrupting and what can’t be automated. You’ll leave with a clear blueprint to redesign development, so women stay competitive, mobile, and resilient in an AI-shaped economy.

Creating the Career You Want in Learning & Development [a Panel Discussion]

Grow your role with intention in a changing field.

Thursday, March 19, 2026
1 pm ET
Speakers:
Connie Malamed // Founder, Connie Malamed Consulting
Melissa Milloway // Sr. Learning Experience Designer, Microsoft
Sarah Mercier // CEO, Build Capable
Nyla Spooner // Learning Design Leader, Inter IKEA Systems

Careers in L&D don’t follow one path. Some people are just getting started. Others are years in and thinking about what comes next. Whether you’re trying to enter the field, grow within your current role, or rework your career in a changing environment, progress takes making decisions and knowing what steps to take.

This panel brings together women from different parts of the learning field to share how they’ve made career moves, expanded their opportunities, and adapted as the work around them changed. You’ll hear specific examples of how they navigated transitions, took on new challenges, and stayed current as the field evolved. You’ll leave with ideas you can apply to your own career, no matter where you are right now.
