What always stuns me are vendors who state they know what their learners want, but in reality have no clue, because they themselves do not see the technology and its usage among the masses. Tired of having to type to post comments in social learning solutions, what about on discussion boards or forums?

Many e-learning vendors put $$$ ahead of their customers. Thus, it is wonderful to see vendors who have stepped forward and said, “we care&# , “we value you&# , by offering giveaways during this holiday season. If you are an employee of any of these vendors, you are not eligible to win.

Thus, the LMS vendors are creating a Bogeyman – their own bogeyman, and it does not have to be that way. A common argument I’m hearing from vendors on why they do not offer a social learning component in their system. &# “Companies are blocking social media access at their site and/or have social media governance policies&#.

In their day to day conversations or posts, how often are they telling each other about your company’s secrets? The common reason of course, is fear of company secrets or information, but again, if you use the various social media, you will see this rarely happens on these sites. Another client (company) can do the same thing.

In 2011, I saw quite a few items that resonated. They involved talent management, “hello and goodbye” with vendors, social learning, upswing in mobile learning, new feature sets in the authoring tool space, flat lining in web conferencing and standalone platforms. Social Learning. Total stagnation.

What I like about conferences is the ability to see the latest products and hear the pitches from the vendors. I was planning on writing about emerging technology and virtual worlds.

Many vendors service multi-conglomerates that are international, rather than companies that are based only in country x and no where else. and European vendors interestingly enough, do not follow suit. Even if your vendor is outside of the U.S./Canada, Many companies in the U.K., They won’t.

In the first week of the semester, the number of students using mobile devices like tablets instead of computers to access the Internet, went from 22% to 71% between 2010 and 2011 (ITS). So why the delay in using mobile learning, especially with tablets in education focused LMSs? Talent Management.

I had thought that this trend would be dying out, but it is amazing at the number of vendors who are entering the space and still focused on the desktop approach. There recently was a big time company who announced they were going to develop their solution only in HTML5, not flash. . Vendors to Watch. They output only to HTML5.

One of the first vendors to include the video boxes on the home page, rather than just the text for course title, etc. Anyone who read my post on a previous conference show from 2011 will have noticed comments on Panopto.

Case in point, one vendor who had a RFP on their site, for anyone to download, had statements in there – that truly applied to their product. There is no reason in 2011, to use a RFP that is 20 pages or more. The LMS market as it relates to online learning and web based training courses has been around for less than 13 years.

A couple of clarity points here – this is your company, freelancers, etc. It is not a marketplace like Odijoo, where you are stuck within their platform after purchasing your courses, and having to use their system – or as it they pitch it, creating your own “campus or company center&#.
