Have you been asked to deliver virtual classes but aren’t sure where to start? Do you know what it takes to create effective and engaging virtual classes?

In this session, you will learn the steps to follow when migrating from the traditional classroom to interactive online classes. You will learn the three critical components to every successful virtual training program. You’ll also discover five skills that effective virtual facilitators need, and three considerations for participant success.

You’ll hear answers to questions such as “What’s different about virtual training as compared to classroom training?” and “How do you keep everyone engaged when you can’t see them?” You will learn to speak on camera, how to multitask and manage technology, and how to engage your remote audience.

By attending this session, you will learn to:

• Define types of online events and determine when to use each one
• Identify critical components for virtual training success and recognize skills needed for effective facilitation of virtual classes
• Recognize ways to set the stage for participant engagement
• Harness your voice for conversation and presentation
• Use webcams, manage technology, and multi-task while facilitatin

Never has it been so essential to design talent development programs to deliver results and demonstrate that they do. This process is especially pertinent for programs that are strategic, aligned with operational goals, expensive, and reach a large audience. Unfortunately, program owners often face challenges to deliver results that executives appreciate and understand, including impact and ROI. Many of those challenges can be overcome by simply designing programs to deliver results while applying three foundational skills: critical thinking, listening, and basic math. This live virtual workshop will introduce the ROI methodology while giving participants practice in using these skills.

During the workshop, we will highlight two case studies: mobile learning and leadership development. Using these case studies as the backdrop, participants will learn the basics of designing programs to deliver results and demonstrating that they do by applying the ROI methodology.

Objectives
After attending this session, participants should be able to:
1. Describe how they can use the ROI methodology to evaluate their programs.
2. Identify programs suitable for evaluation to impact and ROI.
3. Determine when and how to use various approaches to collect and analyze data.

Learning is a critical part of the workplace experience. As business disruption and technology continue to change how work is done, people must constantly rebuild and refresh their job skills. But we can only learn so quickly and retain so much information. And people don’t have a lot of extra time in their busy schedules to dedicate to learning. How can L&D avoid force-feeding people and help them develop just the right skills at the right time?

Join JD Dillon, chief learning architect at Axonify and founder of LearnGeek, for an in-depth exploration of microlearning. You’ll review critical microlearning principles that will help you reimagine your learning ecosystem. You’ll learn how to design training solutions that “fit” within today’s workplace. You’ll discuss the role technology plays in executing a microlearning approach. You’ll evaluate real-world examples that demonstrate how microlearning can enable rapid reskilling and drive bottom-line business results. Finally, you’ll apply microlearning tactics to solve familiar learning and performance challenges.
