Business professionals face a steep curve to be comfortable with the array of available e-learning tools and the burgeoning increase in reference materials. Learning professionals are shifting their attention from doing the training to recommending on-line learning. What guidance can learning and development departments offer to ensure e-learning is building competencies that improve job performance? How does talent move from "learning to know" to "learning to do" and knowing how to find out? This webcast will cover critical aspects of e-learning such as competencies to access e-learning tools, communities of practice to share applied learning, and what you can do as a learning professional to shift your organization to leverage e-learning for business results. You'll discover how your organization can leverage e-learning in the web 2.0 world, as learning on the job becomes inseparable with delivering performance.
