Over 50% of organizations that participated in Brandon Hall Group’s annual Business Focus survey stated that Mobile technology was going to be an important topic for their organization this year. We’ve shifted how we live our lives, make money, and even communicate to fit the new mobile world - we also have to change how we think about learning.
In this presentation David Wentworth Sr. Learning Analyst from Brandon Hall Group, and Ara Ohanian, CEO from CERTPOINT Systems share recent research that removes the hype and looks at practical and effective ways to ensure that learning is effective and relevant in today’s mobile environment.
Learning content today comes from a range of possible sources – from user-generated video to free online courses, to conversations in networks and communities, to internally-created e-learning and ILT. On the other side of that same coin, the pace of modern business now often demands short, targeted performance support that can meet the needs of the business. Effective and efficient content authoring tools are important in creating and maintaining an abundant supply of learning content – regardless of its source.
In this presentation David Mallon and Ara Ohanian will help you understand what you need to do to produce, provide, manage, and maintain content while avoiding one of L&D’s most prominent enemies: wasted time. You will be presented with:
Methods and approaches for authoring, delivering and managing different types of learning content
How to become a more high-impact and agile learning organization
How to reduce the amount of time it takes to source content
Do you ever feel like your company’s approach to social interactions is creating more noise than “relevant conversations?” Social learning can be a powerful and effective performance improvement tool – but many organizations are finding that without a solid Social Learning strategy and plan, they simply aren’t seeing the returns on social interactions.
In this presentation Stacey Harris and David Wentworth will share his recent research on social learning strategies and key practices. Event takeaways include:
Elements of a social learning strategy
Key practices in implementing effective social learning models
Award winning case studies of relevant social learning business outcomes
In a recent Brandon Hall Group Survey on critical topics for 2013 over 35% of the learning organizations we surveyed stated that Big Data was a critical topic for 2013. Why? As an industry we are still struggling to measure the effectiveness of the learning we create and tie it to business performance. Developing a social learning strategy requires direction, data, and an honest assessment of what’s working and what’s not for learning in your organization. Big Data seems to be the next step in the constant search for more insight and direction for Learning Organizations.
In this presentation Stacey Harris and David Wentworth will discuss insights on rethinking the idea of learning analytics. New research highlights how consumer driven learning is changing the market, and how new technologies can help you not only address those changes, but do a better job of connecting your learning efforts to performance outcomes. They will also share key practices in evaluating your learning, focusing on content, users, and business outcomes.
Every learning leader today is concerned with maximizing the potential of an organization's most valuable resource - its people. Traditionally viewed as the administrative backbone of the organization, Human Resources (HR) is set to reposition itself to bring together different lines of business to determine the needs of the workforce of the future and to transform itself into a human capital acquisition and growth expert.
In this presentation Claire Schooley, Kenneth Fung and Andrew McCarthy explore these issues, drawing on research examples from their experience in industry and draw on their practical experience.
How do you plan for the future? What are the key triggers impacting L&D professionals and their ability to drive business impact…
At Europe’s leading learning forum, Learning Technologies 2013, Ara Ohanian, CERTPOINT Systems’ Chief Happiness Officer and CEO, was invited to share his predictions for the L&D industry. His five key trends include:
Social learning will become an integral driver of L&D initiatives • L&D moves from a unit of learning to contextual intelligence • Teachers transform to intel curators • The tipping point for change is here: consider the 100 monkey phenomenon • The changing role of the L&D professional
Ara illustrates his thinking with examples of futuristic L&D tools which will align social realities with business requirements; examples of contextually relevant access to knowledge aligned with unique processes and work streams, and concludes with an example of business driven reporting which analyzes knowledge by timeframe and use of mobile devices in the field.

2013 is on the horizon, and the business community is poised and ready to take advantage of a year filled with possibilities. A year where the impact of social, mobile and cloud is no longer a question of when but by how much? A year where words like data analytics, contextual information, and adaptive outreach become just as important to the learning community, as they’ve become to marketing and sales. A year where business performance is redefined, and learning’s role is re-evaluated. It is a year of new directions.
In this presentation Stacey Harris, VP of Research for Brandon Hall Group, and Ara Ohanian, President and CEO of CERTPOINT Systems, as they share research backed predictions for learning and business in 2013 and explore ways to integrate new directions and new insights into 2013 learning strategy and plans.
Social learning is natural, effective and can be low-cost. It’s no wonder so many organizations are keen to embrace it. But most already have a Learning Management System (LMS) in place. Can the two be reconciled? Can collaborative, informal, discursive learning fit with the course- and resource-based approach of the LMS?
In this presentation Johanna Sadoudi, CEO of VITAMINDS and David Wentworth, Senior Learning Analyst with Brandon Hall Group as they explore this issue, using real-world examples. Johanna will draw on her depth of experience in the industry, having overseen L’Oréal’s LMS deployment, rolling it out to 60,000 people across 45 countries.
