Last week, I attended TK 2012 in Las Vegas. Nice selection of vendors – in general. For PPT lovers, you can synch video files with PPT with drag and drop. This is one of those blended learning solutions, I previously noted. They are an online authoring system. Thus you can have on-site training.

As a result, ILT vendors are embracing e-learning through a variety of ways. Most notably the ability to create a PowerPoint online. For some people WBT is merely sticking a PPT online converting it to Flash and whalla – a new course. Forecast: Slow for 2012 growth. Other e-learning solutions.

Early Signs for 2012. I am still surprised on how vendors who are offering assessment only tools are staying in the game. Perhaps they are unaware of online authoring systems offering assessment features. PowerPoint – Ability to integrate or use PPT in your courses. What does it all mean? It isn’t.

Continued increase in the number of vendors, regardless of size or target customer size (i.e I am projecting that by the end of 2012, you will see HRIS features come into play, but more so as an additional cost module. I expect to see over 80% of the market go SaaS by the end of 2012. small biz, smb, etc.) Prediction.

For whatever reason- okay to try to set themselves apart – some vendors have created the term “training management” Honestly, they could call it “online authoring system with a few reports and no frills” and it would be the same thing. Yeah, you can upload word docs, PPT, etc.

You work online via the servers of your vendor. Everything is saved online. 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. Remember when only a few offered the PPT to Flash option in their tools?
