Moving Enterprise Learning to the Next Level

It is hard to miss all the Web 2.0 talk – it’s everywhere, every magazine, every newspaper, and thousands of Blogs. Some have even called it a mindset and not a specific technology or tool. Just like the rise of eLearning in the mid to late nineties, Web 2.0 is giving rise to the notion of Learning 2.0. The world of Web 2.0 Learning promises to be more exciting than anything we’ve seen before in technology based learning and performance in the last two decades.

Discover Informal Learning with Jay Cross

Few organizations have the luxury of providing training the old way. New products come out in less time than it takes to develop training for them. Training’s messages often lose out to a tidal wave of new information,
e-mail, and spam. Employees do not have time to attend courses. Self-service learning can overcome these obstacles. Jay will explain how to overcome training’s dilemma naturally by providing and nurturing informal learning opportunities.

Let’s share what we know about:
• BEST PRACTICES for communities of practice, culture change, and systems thinking
• LEVERAGING informal learning (which is, after all, most of the learning going on in your shop)
• MAXIMIZING THE RETURN from the ultimate learning technology, conversation
• CONVINCING EXECUTIVE management to invest in informal approaches

Learning Objectives:
• Identify opportunities to improve performance by replacing formal training with informal learning
• Sell non-traditional, informal learning solutions to management
• Apply the bus/bicycle analogy and the learner lifecycle to in-house learning situations
• Discover how informal learning improves performance
