Social Media & Social Learning – LMS Style. A surprisingly number of vendors who offer some form of social learning, whether it is the minimum – a FB like page, micro-blog, even some form of app sharing or collaborative tool, do not have any social media on their site. E-Learning 24/7.

Majority of employees access a LMS or Learning Portal out of the workplace.

Certainly with the rise of rapid e-Learning tools and the increase in SME-published content well start to see an increase in the frequency of updates to e-Learning material.

Vendors were saying, lets “wait on those&# or “our customers are not requesting them, so we are holding off&#. Social learning?
