Quoth the raven, “Nevermore.” Several years ago, I collected several e-learning horror stories for a now-inactive group blog. I took a bit of artistic license with this, but this is based on a true story shared by Jeff Goldman. Jeff’s was by far the best (or worst!) story people shared with me, and I’m grateful that he inspired me to this creativity.

I’m sitting here on Halloween having just finished carving the pumpkins with my daughter and wife. It has become a tradition to get all the seeds, clean them up, and roast them into a delicious Halloween treat. I’m smelling them roast in the oven right now smothered in olive oil, salt, and as my wife tells me waaaaay too much garlic (it does smell of garlic very strongly in here but it’s so so good).

In the 10/23/15 blog I mentioned, “Skills allow people to succeed at their job, not training.” Expanding on that thought, employees can attend training class after training class after training class, and even pass tests that show they’ve “learned,” however that does not truly mean that they can leverage the information presented in the class in the real world as skills.
