Absorb LMS

FEBRUARY 15, 2016

It’s pretty common for prospective clients to ask software vendors for references prior to signing a contract. A 15-minute phone call with two or three organizations who have used the system extensively and sampled the vendor’s services can help mitigate the risk – and reduce the anxiety – related to acquiring a new system. If you’re evaluating new applications such as a learning management system (LMS), you may be considering asking the shortlisted vendors for references.

This post curates resources shared via the backchannel of the Training 2016 Conference and Expo being held February 15-17 in Orlando. I am a huge proponent of backchannel learning. There are many conferences I would love to be able to attend, but most people can only accommodate one or two each year. The backchannel is an excellent resource for learning from a conference or event, even if you are unable to attend in-person.

Personal learning paths are user-chosen and give learners control over their own eLearning experience, so that they can more effectively acquire and retain knowledge and skills that will help them in the real world. This personal experience is tailored to each participant over time and helps to hold their attention and to increase the “fun” aspect of eLearning.
