Description We started making videos for e-learning a decade ago, mostly by accident. Today, I've shot over 60 of our famous 'whiteboard' videos, about two dozen episodes of a talk show format, and two full-length asynchronous courses, along with several marketing videos. What I've learned from each format has informed my work in the others, and ultimately they've all led back to my latest book, which was first written entirely as video scripts. I'll share the story behind the stories, including mistakes made, lessons learned, and samples of what's worked best - and where we're going next.

Microlearning has been around since the 60's, but is just now gaining popular focus. With the rapid advances in technology, how is microlearning evolving?

Many L&D leaders dream of creating the ideal learning experience. An experience that is motivating, engaging and accessible by everyone AND leaves their people feeling empowered to succeed.

You'll gain insights into: The Learning and Performance Convergence Model 4 steps for developing a strategic learning experience aligned to business objectives Key elements of a modern learning experience, including mobile learning, video, coaching and informal learning How to use technology to deliver on this strategy and measure the results that matter Download this eBook from Saba Software today and start designing a better learning experience for your people and your business!

All training and learning aim on helping workers impact work positively. However, it is getting harder and harder to connect training to work impacts and knowing they actually happen. Work is changing so fast, training can't seem to catch up. So, we are back to rethinking how do we make our learners become "micro-experts" - teaching them to solve, fix and improve small work challenges that make them perform better.

This webcast will teach specific design and instructional strategies how managers and leaders can coach employees to greater talent when time is limited. During the webcast, we will teach specific case study examples of how to design & train on one on one and supplemental coaching strategies where the manager does not physically have to be present. During this webcast, we will give specific case study examples for the following types of coaching opportunities:
