Why these events?
So, why did we pick these events? Simply because all these events have something in common. They are focusing their sessions, keynote speeches, break-out events, meet-ups and expositions on the following themes that are bringing out far-reaching changes in the Training & Development environment.
Themes such as the ones below, but not restricted to -
Gamification - using gaming metaphors and jargon in LMS to accelerate the learning curve and to increase User Engagement.
MOOCs - does unlimited participation and open access have a direct effect on increased user engagement?
Adaptive & Responsive LMS- How efficient are responsive multi-device learning solutions and what are the drawbacks?
New Age Compliance in LMS - faster and secure access for users on compliance, health and safety matters.
Mobile & Small Tech Issues - mlearning accessibility and security issues.
Metrics, Assessment and Data - choosing the right parameters to track, and how analytics done right can boost user engagement.
Leadership Development - how to harness the best practices of business and organisational leadership to train & empower future leaders.
Cyber Threat & Learning - The importance of a trusted, secure virtual environment for learning.
Videos - Open, Short easy-access videos and the impact of IT trends like webRTC on LMS evolution?
Social Ramifications - how different variables influence the Training & Development ecosystem as a whole.
We would like to start a discussion on THE T&D events to attend this year. Have we missed any? Did we get all the current buzzwords and trending topics in LMS and Learning and Development? Let us know. We would love to hear from you.
