About this session
Over the years Brightwave has helped many world-leading organisations tackle business challenges with e-learning. In many cases, this has taken the form of courses, the formats of which are familiar to most of us. Yet our approach to e-learning has evolved.
While the core imperatives may have remained the same (a business need, a specific audience, measurable change in behaviour and a clear message/content), the tools and resources available to our designers are proliferating. The role of the learning designer has become more complex, more wide-reaching and arguably more valuable. In this session, Charles will draw from recent experience at Brightwave, including the latest thinking from its design team to address some very current questions.
Is the course really dead? When might it still be appropriate?
How do we meet organisational needs while exploiting less formal learning?
What resources and tools are being harnessed to replace or supplement the course?
How do we enhance learning using communications, social media and mobile technology?
What new opportunities do learning designers have and how should they use them?
In what direction are organisations moving if they are moving beyond the course?

HMG Response To One Death Is Too Many March 2010Alan Bassett
The UK is rightly regarded as having one of the best health and safety records in the world. Since 1997/8 the rate of fatal injuries to workers has fallen by 40
per cent, including in the construction sector, reflecting the significant focus on improving safety by the Health and Safety Executive, local authorities, businesses and trades unions. While this is very welcome, every death is one too many and a tragedy to those involved and their families. That is why we need to do more...
As part of National Learning at Work Week, Brightwave BDM Sophie Miller looks at how nature contrives to hide from itself, and what it can teach us about perceptual bias and visual information processing.

What you can see coming can sometimes hurt you, but you have time to prepare for it. Most often it's what you *can't* see that will smack you solidly upside the head and upset your business or non-profit. There are lots of reasons for not seeing risk, including cognitive bias - we all ignore data that doesn't fit our world-view, it's part of our built-in human pattern recognition circuitry. I'll introduce a few simple scenario planning concepts and process steps as antidotes to cognitive bias, blind spots, and other impediments to exploring the future and proper risk mitigation.

North East Safety Health and Environmental Partnership Members Handbook - Take a look and join this rapidly expanding group of like-minded HSE professionals...
As well as challenging the value of formal, structured learning, L&D is starting to think more about how informal learning, relationships and performance support can be enabled for the benefit of their learners and their organisation.
From community management and the trends impacting the workplace of tomorrow, a Total Learning approach harnesses these opportunities and makes for an exciting future for technology-enabled learning.
The session featured a lively panel discussion where four experts share their views on key learning topics:
●Managing learner expectations.
● How will the necessary shift from 'course to resource' change the role of L&D?
● The opportunity to facilitate informal learning for career and professional development.
● New technologies and emerging trends.
This presentation was delivered by Meg Green on Wednesday 28th January at the Learning Technologies 2015 exhibition.
Reducing The Risk Of Falls From Tail LiftsAlan Bassett
HSE research carried out in 2004/05 estimate the human and economic cost of ‘falls from vehicle’ incidents that we know about was over £36.5 million. A sizeable proportion of these are falls from tail-lifts.
