Topics to be Addressed March 17, 2010

The current global economic, political, and social climate has significantly impacted workplace learning and the development of strategic planning and practices. This has resulted in the considerable reframing of how learning is being planned, what trends are shaping it, and how new technology is being used to provide opportunities for innovation. These two day seminars will offer learning leaders and practitioners the opportunity to share best practices across diverse industries during these challenging times. As people are an organization’s most important asset and branding tool, their development will continue to be critical to the success of any enterprise.

Learn about best practices in:

  • Learning and Development as a Business Driver
  • Powering Learning Investment Through Business Alignment
  • Learning as Go–to–Market Strategy
  • Learning as Part of Work
  • Best Practices
  • Career Development in 21st Century Organizations — Coaching Learning
  • Using Learning Networks
