CBT Prior to online learning known then as WBT, and then the latter term of e-learning (vendors today, use it to refer to content that is online), there was CBT. CBT was the “new” and exciting way to learn. Why have a system to house courses, when ILT was the main way of learning and training?

Early Signs for 2012. This will become one of the biggest features in 2012 – especially with people wanting to create simulations without being an e-learning developer. By the end of 2012, I’m forecasting that SaaS will finally overtake Desktop – but it won’t be by much. Smart, very smart.

I can’t tell you the number of vendors who push five or seven years as the best way to go. The best way is three years (so past blog posts on why this is true). Go back 13 years and you will see that nearly every vendor allowed unlimited courses into their systems. Fast forward to 2012. It isn’t. Bottom Line.

Vendors were saying, lets “wait on those&# or “our customers are not requesting them, so we are holding off&#. Social learning? If they were doing it, Facebook like page, a crummy blog that looks nothing like a real blog, a Twitter like feed, maybe RSS, text chat and YouTube functions and upload/download angle.

I live it, perhaps too much, yet the other day I came across a learning blog informing its readers that in order for the LMS to survive: Must become modular. E-Commerce. Customized skinning – albeit in today’s market there are some vendors who charge for skins – disgusting! Modules in 2012.

Blog – This was on the trial and for a nice product like this – it should be removed for the trial. I have no problem recommending this system and have it listed as number 25 in my top 25 learning management systems of 2012. And frankly, that isn’t something most vendors would want. It is sooo boring.
