Blended learning is not new to training. It requires careful analysis, planning, creativity, and follow through on the part of training departments to design meaningful experiences. For associations, it’s not always easy to incorporate change in training programs. Not New, But Improved. With Blended Learning. Where to Begin?

At the time, platforms like Second Life were touting the advantages of an immersive navigable world. You can quickly see why most training doesn’t work, cut through hype from vendors, create explanations about why myths are mythtaken, etc. Of course, the promises were all-encompassing: everything would move to virtual worlds.
