Learning delivered through a video conferencing platform continues to be the standard for remote training. Though convenient, synchronous learning methods are not always the optimal modality to address the organization's learning and development (L&D) needs. Dispersed teams require learning in the flow of work, but repeated live training can put significant pressure on team schedules and bandwidth.
 
In this webinar, Chris Knowlton, a chief video evangelist for Panopto, will share six actionable solutions for using asynchronous (on-demand) videos to improve training productivity and effectiveness and three examples of when you should opt for real-time training instead. You will walk away with the knowledge of how to apply asynchronous and synchronous training methods to your organization's L&D program.
 
In this interactive webinar, you will learn:

What asynchronous training is and why more L&D teams are using it to improve learning outcomes
Which types of training are best delivered asynchronously and how to plan and produce them
Three examples of when synchronous training methods work better and why
Examples and case studies from organizations that have adopted asynchronous training

We've all heard it before: You found the best e-learning solution to meet your organization's needs. You checked all the boxes and got buy-in for the software. You even planned and assigned a project team for the rollout. Yet implementation simply takes forever.
But it doesn't have to. With proper life-cycle planning and strategic execution, from vendor evaluation to blueprinting to deployment and support, the dream implementation can actually be a reality. To learn how it can be done, join Lee Collier and Chris McRae for this webcast. They’ll cover the essentials on effective, efficient LMS software implementations, including:

common hiccups, oversights, and mistakes that can protract implementation schedules indefinitely
building a comprehensive, end-to-end implementation plan that covers every stage of the process
the questions to ask prospective vendors as you go through your selection process, and more.
 


Avoiding LMS Implementation Purgatory

Each year, learning and HR solutions are implemented with minimal performance change or impact. This is because performance improvement requires the implementation of multiple solutions—single solutions, such as learning, rarely result in the desired performance change.
Performance consulting is a process designed to achieve business results by maximizing the performance of people and organizations. But what do people who work as performance consultants actually do? How is this different from more traditional approaches to talent development? And how do talent development professionals successfully adopt this methodology?
In this webcast, Dana Robinson and Chris Adams will answer these questions. After participating, you will be able to:

Define performance consulting and why it is a strategic—not tactical—process.
Describe the two components of the mental model used by performance consultants when they discuss requests for learning and other solutions.
Ask powerful questions when responding to a learning solution request.
Identify three proven practices for transitioning to a performance consulting approach.
