Some companies will use “Level 2: Learning” to measure whether the learners have mastered the training course content. The focus is on the training event itself and the follow-up to that event. Company executives are typically interested in the bottom line, not how well their employees apply the learning from a training class.

Here is my recap of the Washington ASTD ICE 2014 conference. The trends where workplace learning and informal learning. I haven’t counted them, but leadership development tools, programs, books and training where all over the place. Most of the sessions were very good (just a few disappointed me).

Recent research by ASTD and REED Learning reveals that measuring and evaluating learning is the top-most skill L&D teams are looking for. And since Formal Learning can be measured more easily (as compared to Informal), we’ll continue to see formal learning as the largest component of learning strategy in workplace.

For example, late last year I blogged a post defending informal learning. I'm sure most of you are familiar with this chart in which we are told that 20% of the learning is formal and 70% is informal, yet paradoxical we spend 80% of our training budget on the formal and only 30% on the informal: Chart 1.

According to Training in America by Garnevale, Gainer, and Villet (1990), two out of three workers say that everything they need to know was learned on the job, rather than through the classrooms. Thus the workplace is the most frequently traveled avenue to education and training for most employed persons.

Most employee training and education programs focus on just a few required, core topics: basic skills, computer systems, and keeping current on industry regulations or changes. But that’s such a small part of what a great training program can be. More : Let Employees Choose Their Own Training Materials. That’s fine.

I view this as e-learning since the person watching the video is getting instruction on how to build in the world of Second Life. This can be used for many different training applications using the world of Second Life as a platform for creation of the learning. I consider both the entry and the video as a learning package.
