Getting Started with e-Learning!
Many companies spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on e-Learning programs and systems-and discover they made a poor decision. In order to avoid these costly mistakes, The Bob Pike Group partnered with e-Learning experts William and Kit Horton of Horton Consulting to develop this workshop to cover the fundamentals of e-Learning. This content-rich, highly interactive workshop lets you examine the essential e-Learning terminology, tools, technology, and best practices. This workshop will truly get you started in e-Learning.
After attending this workshop, you will be able to avoid ineffective or overpriced e-Learning endeavors by knowing how to distinguish between good and bad e-Learning, how to assemble the talent for your next e-learning project, and how to ask the right questions of e-Learning specialists. You will have the confidence, questions, and core knowledge to contribute to e-Learning planning and design in your company. You will also begin your own ongoing education to move beyond the basics.
This session is extremely participatory and interactive in nature. It includes not only in-classroom involvement, but also an online learning module. Participants will learn from the content being presented and modeled as well as from one another. From time to time participants will interact through writing, viewing, listening and sharing.
