In today's rapidly evolving eLearning landscape, the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has proven to be more than just a passing trend. With its ability to provide personalized, adaptive learning experiences, AI is radically transforming eLearning. However, with the excitement and potential come several questions: Is it expensive? How do you get started? Is it feasible for your organization? Garima will be addressing these questions, demonstrating how you can implement AI in your eLearning courses without incurring substantial costs through the power of pilot programs.  

Software simulations play a pivotal role in fostering engagement, interactivity, and knowledge retention among learners. In today's digital landscape, the ability to create intuitive and effective software simulations is a game-changer for both trainers and learners.  

One of our most popular webinars from 2022 is returning with an update on how training professionals are incorporating AI voice into their workflows. In January this year, AI and Generative AI have begun to dominate industry newsletters, and learning and development are no exception.  

It’s understandable that lots of people were overjoyed about being able to get back into the physical classroom after lockdowns and being apart. Trainers and facilitators around the world rejoiced in seeing people’s body language, using their flipcharts and finally being with real human beings again.   

Best practice organizations allocate 4-5% of the learning budget for measurement and evaluation. Yet, most L&D teams invest just one percent or less of their budgets to measurement and evaluation—and most of that investment is in tracking who is in the program (Level 0), reaction to learning (Level 1), and learning (Level 2). Very little data is captured for application (Level 3), impact (Level 4), and ROI (Level 5). This is not good news.  

Two months ago, Joe shared with us why he loves Windows PowerToys because of how useful they are while designing and developing learning. This time, Joe will share with us all the other tools, free and low-cost, that he has used day in and day out while creating learning applications. You're sure to find one or more of these tools very helpful in your own work. If you have a favorite tool to share as well, we'll welcome your input!

We’re constantly being told that AI will revolutionize the way we all work and what we do, but can you imagine ever not using PowerPoint? It just feels like it’s too embedded into everything to be cast aside. Fortunately, Microsoft, and others, are also incorporating AI tools into PowerPoint, allowing people to benefit from the technological leaps, while still using familiar tools. The anticipated launch of Microsoft Copilot will be a huge boost to storytelling, design, and visualization for many - enabling them to create better presentations much more quickly and easily. It’s easily the most exciting thing to happen to PowerPoint, and the entire Office suite, since it was first launched 30 years ago.

"The person doing the talking is often the person doing the learning." - Jen York-Barr In today's rapidly evolving world of remote learning and virtual training, engaging participants and ensuring they actively absorb the material can be overwhelming. In this workshop we’ll discover the immense potential of participant interaction in virtual training sessions, and how encouraging active engagement can significantly enhance the learning experience.

Chat GPT, MidJourney, Claude2...Generative AI is all the rage. But, too many people don't know how to engage with these tools most effectively to get the desired outcome. We developed the TheaterThink model as a structured approach to human-centered problem-solving using language, methods, and principles cultivated and taught by theater artists worldwide. And, wouldn't you know, it works perfectly for AI interactions. Experience the approach that takes your prompt engineering from "meh" to mindblowing!  

Sales coaching has to be in alignment with your sales approach or your sales delivery model. Often the two can be exclusive from one another and therein lies a wonderful opportunity.  

What a spectacular year in learning tech, and we're just midway! As the pixels settle from the overnight sensation of ChatGPT and Apple’s spectacular entry into "spatial computing" it’s time to take stock. Join a panel of Chief Learning Officers from Starbucks, Ericsson, and Novartis for a conversation about these seismic technological transitions and their repercussion on strategic learning. The upcoming installment of Training Magazine Network’s "Learning from the Leading Edge" will explore how L&D can:

Workflow Learning brings training and learning closer to work. Stakeholders love it because it saves time, is faster, and is immediately useful to workers and learners. Workflow Learning’s adoptions come in different models depending on the business needs. It is agile - and cuts to the chase - the bottom line.  

What if you could pick the brains of the best leaders and managers in the world?

People call them handouts, leave-behinds, slide docs, downloadables, or just "documents." When you use PowerPoint to create something for distribution and meant to be read by a single person at any given time, it’s not really a presentation anymore—it’s a document. And it should be designed and treated as such. You could use InDesign or Word, but PowerPoint is actually surprisingly powerful for this format when you learn a few tricks and approaches. Microsoft PowerPoint MVP Nolan Haims will show you how to use PowerPoint as a desktop publishing tool to create effective print and PDF materials.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been the talk of the town, promising transformative learning experiences. However, for many learning and development professionals, the path from understanding the potential of AI to practically integrating it into eLearning remains unclear. This session, titled "Beyond the Buzzwords: Practical Steps to Integrate AI in eLearning," offers the roadmap to demystify this journey.  

Once upon a time in a land far, far away, trainers told creative, captivating stories that piqued the interest of colleagues, clients, and customers. These trainers did not say, "Trust me on this" or "Take my word for it," nor did they overwhelm their listeners with complex bar graphs or slay them with bullet (points). Rather, they used the power of storytelling to get people to agree, believe, comply, or act. Stories help people sit up and listen, and most importantly, connect!  

Today’s professionals need their organizations to help them navigate their world at work in the face of extreme uncertainty and change. Socioeconomic trends, including automation, changing demographics, and increased social polarization, are splintering society and creating profound new challenges and opportunities for learning and development. Add the dramatic rise of technological advancements such as generative AI applications in the workplace — and many workers feel like they can’t keep up.  

Two months ago, Joe shared with us why he loves Windows PowerToys because of how useful they are while designing and developing learning.
