Digital disruption is drastically changing the way we learn and consume content. Learning follows the path of least resistance. As a result, people look to what is right in front of them – informal options like social and on-demand learning. A recent studyby Degreed found that nearly 50 percent of people search the Internet and 43 percent browse specific online resources when they need to learn something new for work.
The smartest learning leaders are embracing the changing learning habits in today’s workforce, taking advantage of the drive towards informal. Join us for this complimentary webinar, sponsored by Degreed and presented by Juli Weber, organizational development manager at Purch, and Sarah Danzl, head of enterprise communication and content development at Degreed. You’ll learn how Purch began valuing informal learning and realigned its L&D strategy to support employee learning and performance.
According research by ATD, only 38% of learning and development (L&D) professionals think they’re ready to meet the needs of tomorrow’s learners. So to help L&D teams better engage employees, Degreed recently surveyed 500+ people to understand the learning culture, values and habits of today’s hyper-kinetic, hyper-connected workers.
In this presentation we'll cover:
-How people really build their skills and fuel their careers in 2016
-What employees think is most missing from the workplace learning environment
-How innovative L&D leaders are adapting to meet the needs of tomorrow's workforce
The requirements for learning technology have evolved because organizations and their employees have evolved. Today, people are learning in many different ways, often outside of conventional L&D systems.
But investing in the tools to deliver and measure learning in a modern ecosystem requires new approaches to selecting technology as well. Some organizations may just be starting to dabble in learning beyond the LMS, while others aim to fully transform how they deliver and measure L&D. Regardless of where you fall on the “innovation” spectrum, though, RFPs are still geared towards the same old systems.
Join Todd Tauber, Degreed’s VP of Product Marketing, and Mike Rustici, CEO of Watershed, for a 30 minute webinar to learn:
1) What questions to ask when evaluating tools for a new learning ecosystem.
2) How to identify the capabilities you really need instead of the product you think you need to deliver, track, and analyze formal and informal learning
3) Three examples of how leading-edge organizations have successfully created an RFP for a modern ecosystem
Digital technology is creating a huge opportunity to elevate the learning and talent development function from a distraction to a driver of business results.
But effectively adapting L&D to our always-on workforce is harder than ever. Reality is getting more virtual. Intelligence is getting more artificial. Data is getting bigger.
This talent-packed Q&A will feature a discussion with Bersin by Deloitte analyst, Dani Johnson, and 3 learning trailblazers:
- Barry Murphy, global learning at airbnb
- Chris Trout, VP of L&D at The Walt Disney Company
- Amy Rouse, Senior Learning Strategist, formerly of AT&T
We will dive into just how these leaders are adapting and evolving to confront the digital disruption of L&D.
4 Effective Strategies for Engaging the New Consumer LearnerDavid Blake
For a long time, perhaps too long, the HR and training functions have dictated learning for employees. But workers have started taking things into their own hands.
This shift from relying on L&D to self-directed has left many organizations wondering what their next move should be.
The best place to start is putting yourself in the learner’s’ shoes and examine the human behaviors around growth and development.
Every day, employees waste approximately 11% of their time on unproductive learning. According to CEB Research, this misused time costs the average organization more than $134.5 million in employee productivity each year.
Many think the answer is improved content that’s more relevant. But the better answer is actually being more productive and efficient with your learning time, or being a better learner.
The reality is that most of us, even those of us who are in the HR or L&D fields, don’t know how to learn effectively.
Lucky for you, Degreed and Dr. Barbara Oakley are going to help you become a better learner in just 45 minutes.
Why Learning is the Key to Happiness at WorkDavid Blake
Learning is your biggest competitive advantage – the key to getting and keeping great talent in an ever evolving workforce. People want to develop their skills for the future whether they are just graduating from college and are looking to land their first job, want to get better at the job they already have, or looking to gain new skills for their career of the future. Traditional classroom models are antiquated and outdated, but technology is making new things possible, and easier!
The near future of learning and development (L&D) is already here. And this new reality includes workers and their managers sharing more of the responsibility than you might be used to. That doesn’t mean your L&D organization, practices and tools are obsolete – they still play an important role. But they do need to evolve. These days, the most successful CLOs do more than just “supply” learning. They also enable their workers to take learning into their own hands. Caterpillar has done just that, having created a dynamic learning environment that empowers workers to both discover and track learning at their moment of need, rather than wait for the next formal session.
The State of Workforce Learning in Our Digital WorldDavid Blake
Workplace learning is remaking itself whether organizations are on board or not. And there’s a glaring disconnect: Employees are only spending 1% of a workweek on professional development and learning while organizations are spending over $130 billion worldwide in 2014, and rising ever since.
That’s a pricey 4.8 minutes a day!. Learning is among the 10 ten trends reshaping how we work, and a key concern for companies of every stripe, but success is going to take a whole new approach.
What’s needed: a culture of learning, with learning opportunities across every platform we use today: mobile, social, video, classroom, and more. The smartest CLO’s are creating a partnership between employer and employee, are measuring engagement, performance and discern. Empowering those connections means drawing on the best tools out there.

The Democratization of Learning and DevelopmentDavid Blake
The future of learning and development (L&D) is already here. This new reality includes workers and their managers sharing more of the responsibility than you might be used to. That doesn’t mean your L&D organization, practices, and tools are obsolete—they still play an important role. But they do need to evolve. These days, the most successful chief learning officers do more than just supply learning. They also enable their workers to take learning into their own hands.
Digital technology is transforming just about everything—fast. Yet only a fraction of executives think their HR function is helping them adapt to the digital future. The smartest CLOs are already transforming their approaches to L&D. But evolving to meet the demands of today’s always-on economy takes more than just investing in bite-sized content and the newest technology. What separates the disruptors from the disrupted is how you put those new tools to work.
Find out:
- Why progressive learning leaders are rethinking their strategies
- How innovative L&D professionals are redesigning their toolkits and technology architectures
- What forward-thinking CLOs are doing to re-organize and re-skill their teams
The Workforce is Learning Differently. What Does it Mean for the Digital CLO?David Blake
Organizational learning is always evolving, but it seems that we have reached a point in time when it is changing more rapidly than companies can keep up with. The changes are both dramatic and incremental, and coming from every direction. Simply changing what we do is not enough, we need to start changing who we are. Do today’s learning organizations and the people running them have the DNA to deliver the modern learning experience?
Corporate learning professionals have access to more learning content than ever before. Degreed has cataloged over 250,000 online learning courses and 3 million informal learning activities from more than 1200 sources. Everything from live, virtual and eLearning courses to videos, MOOCs, articles, books, podcasts, webinars, conferences, online communities, apps and more.
Degreed LENS Event: Reinventing the Learning Experience - March 23rd, 2016, N...David Blake
Are you ready for today's learners?
According to new research by Degreed, only 18% of workers would recommend their employer's L&D opportunities to a colleague; they're disengaged and looking elsewhere for their learning and growth experiences. In this exclusive, free invitation-only event you will hear from prominent industry analyst, Josh Bersin, about innovative approaches to corporate learning in the 21st century.
Through a series of case studies and interactive discussion, you will also connect with some of the most forward thinking L&D leaders to share what they're learning about how to build more engaging, more responsive digital learning experiences.
It’s not hard to be overwhelmed by the wealth of content available today. Every day, we create 2.5 quintillion bytes of data 1. That’s equivalent to 10 million compact discs that when stacked, would equal the height of 4 Eiffel towers 2. But the explosion of both content and digital technology hasn’t actually increased productivity. In fact, content searches cost companies over $14,000 per worker and nearly 500 hours per worker every year 3.
So how can you break through the noise? The most successful CLOs have begun harnessing the power of all learning experiences through curation, and more importantly, context. Curation and context powers learning in a variety of ways that can help you and your learners make sense of the plethora of information and reduce barriers to creating a culture of continuous learning.
60-year careers, the decreasing half life of skills, and digital disruption have many organizations rethinking, and maybe even struggling with how they develop their employees.
“Fifty-six percent of current workforce skill sets do not match the changes in their company’s strategy, goals, markets, or business models.” — ATD, Bridging the Skills Gap, 2015
Finding success in this turbulent time takes new strategies, skillsets and modernized tools, which makes it an important, yet perfect time for corporate learning leadership to take stock of their learning investments.
Creating the right ecosystem will be the difference between those who make it through the age of disruption and those who don’t.
How To Measure Informal Learning's Value David Blake
We’re hearing it everywhere: today’s workers are learning every day, in a variety of ways, on and offline. In fact, more than 70 percent of workers surveyed say they learned something useful for their job from an article, a video or a book in the last 24 hours. Yet at the organization level, very little data is captured on what employees are learning in the course of doing their jobs. Regularly, measurement ends when the training program is over, and the details captured are minimal.
People are choosing to learn in different ways from a much more diverse range of sources. Meanwhile, most L&D infrastructure is still geared for the same old thing – managing formal training. This webinar deck covers:
- What the wisdom of the crowd can teach L&D professionals about learning
- 3 ways to reconnect L&D’s requirements to learners’ expectations
- How to leverage the new learning ecosystem to make L&D more efficient, effective and agile
Reinventing Learning Content for Next-Generation LearnersDavid Blake
Nearly 70% of the training that employers do is still delivered the old fashioned way – in instructor-led courses.(1) Yet there are now over 1,200 sources of learning content in dozens of formats. And workers are increasingly choosing bite-sized, on-demand, digital options that fit into how they really learn on-the-job.
In this presentation you will learn:
-The 3 big trends in how learning content is evolving
-Why MOOCs and micro-learning are just the beginning, and…
-How innovative L&D leaders are rethinking the ways they use content to keep up with today’s empowered, self-directed learners
Getting Started Using Data-Driven Learning DesignDavid Blake
A savvy facilitator observes the body language of their participants to gauge interest and engage. While an online environment lacks the face-to-face interaction, every drop-off, click, or share is a learner shouting their likes and dislikes. These actions are the digital equivalents of the eyerolls, smiles, and arms-crossed in the classroom. But are we paying attention? Learn practical ways to use data you already have access to in ways to uncover valuable insights and make design decisions with better results, increased engagements, and save your content from the digital dustbin.
Conduent Webinar Feb 2020: Skills, The Currency of the Future of WorkDavid Blake
Two major shifts:
- Education went from being scarce to being abundant
- Technology outpaced the ability of humans to learn
- Created a massive global skills gap
CEO's reporting skills as a top priority, and lack of skills as a top threat to business
- Most companies cannot yet inventory skills
- Market is beginning to respond to meet this need
- Market maturity is highest around lifelong learning; medium around skills measurement; and nascent around skills gap analysis (informing what skills a company needs)
A recent Bersin survey pointed out that just 28 percent of organizations have “good” or “very good” levels of proficiency in basic data literacy skills. And that makes sense, because it often feels like you need a statistics degree to understand HR analytics. But the truth is, you don’t need a degree. You just need to know what to look for and how to turn that into meaningful conclusions. Degreed and Watershed are here to help.Join us for Data Fluency for Dummies.
The Tools You Need to Build the Learning Culture You WantDavid Blake
Most business leaders say they want a culture of learning. But less than one third of corporate learning leaders believe that their organization has one. Part of the problem is that many employees are already looking beyond their employers’ training and driving more of their own development. And the traditional tools of the trade just aren’t enough anymore – not for these hyper-connected, hyper-kinetic workers.

Retooling L&D: Building the Right Capabilities for Organizational SuccessDavid Blake
Dismally, only 40% of organizations feel that their L&D organizations are helping to drive the business. New technologies, empowered and picky employees, and executives that demand results are fundamentally changing the role that L&D must play in the business. As organizations become more intent on adaptable and innovative workforces, L&D capabilities must move from “doing” to “influencing”.
Bridging the Skills Gap - How Cognizant is re-defining learning strategiesDavid Blake
56% of current workforce skill sets do not match the changes in their company’s strategy, goals, markets, or business models, says ATD's survey on Bridging the Skills Gap. With the rise of digital disruption, a 4-generation workforce and 60-year careers, organizations are forced to re-think how they develop their employees. In order to operate differently, companies need to explore new strategies, skillsets, and modernized tools. It is an important time for corporate learning leadership to take stock of their learning investments and create the ecosystem and solutions that will take them through the age of disruption. In this webcast you learn about how some of the leading companies are re-thinking their learning strategies, what should be in your learning toolkit and how you can re-skill employees.

4 Effective Strategies for Engaging the New Consumer LearnerOliver Craddock
The way that individuals are learning is changing quickly. This presents organizations with an opportunity. Individuals arrive at work with increased expectations that we have previously not seen within the workplace and only in a consumer dynamic.
This shift from relying on L&D to self-directed has left many organizations wondering what their next move should be.
The best place to start is putting yourself in the learners' shoes and examine the human behaviours around growth and development.
The rise of this consumer learner if acted upon correctly enables organizations to engage their workforce to new levels and reap the benefits in this age of fast paced change and drive for innovation.

business itself, and companies and learners have all changed faster than
many learning and development (L&D) organizations have kept up.
Enterprise L&D departments have started to adapt their approaches to
building, buying, and delivering learning programs. But, in many cases,
they still are not fully embracing the fact that much employee learning
does not actually happen in formal training courses or via learning
management systems (LMSs).1
In this bulletin, we look at two key trends that have significant
implications for L&D professionals:
• Several changes in the work environment which are dramatically
altering learners’ needs and habits
• Changing priorities that are driving new approaches to learning for
the modern workforce

Thinking of Learners as Consumers – Can L&D deliver more than just Compliance...LearningCafe
What if employees were free to make a choice to consume or reject the Learning developed by L&D i.e be consumers? Mandatory learning including compliance courses has been the engine that has driven the adoption of eLearning as it provides trackable, cost effective and a scalable solution to ensure that employees have acquired essential knowledge.
Mandatory learning however rarely addresses the higher level skills and mindsets required by organisations to stay ahead of the competition today such as innovation, resilience, customer centricity etc. Social, informal and workplace learning falls in the discretionary category and have a poor track record in most organisations. Earlier this year we released the “LearningCafe Digital Manifesto for L&D,” which is the result of thinking at LearningCafe about how L&D should adapt to provide value in a fast changing and digitally disrupted world. One of the principles of this manifesto is “Thinking of Learners as Consumers”.
An experienced online panel discusses the opportunities and challenges of thinking of Learner as Consumers.
Extending Learning beyond the Classroom: Improving Performance in the WorkflowChristopher King
Are you struggling with how to apply 70-20-10 to your learning architecture? Do you know how to extend the reach of your L&D interventions beyond the classroom? “Informal” does not have to mean “unplanned.” We trainers do knowledge-based learning really, really well. But we’re still grappling with performance-based learning and how that fits into our world. But when you design your learning for all five Moments of Learning Need, suddenly the 70 and 20 starts to make sense.
What are the five Moments of Learning Need? Join us to find out, and how to use them to assess your mix of formal and informal learning. Stay to explore a Performance-focused learning design methodology that blends the benefits of deliberate instructional design with the just-in-time characteristic inherent in informal learning. Find out how to extend the learning beyond the classroom and meet your learners in their workflow. You’ll see real-world performance support tools and get a high-level review of what makes them tick.

Retooling L&D: Building the Right Capabilities for Organizational SuccessDavid Blake
Dismally, only 40% of organizations feel that their L&D organizations are helping to drive the business. New technologies, empowered and picky employees, and executives that demand results are fundamentally changing the role that L&D must play in the business. As organizations become more intent on adaptable and innovative workforces, L&D capabilities must move from “doing” to “influencing”.
Shaping the Workforce: Strategies for the Future of WorkDavid Blake
For many years, society has operated under the premise that growth is a linear activity: school, then university and then work. But what if you didn’t have access to school? And what happens when you’ve been out of school for more than 10 years? Are you no longer valuable? Absolutely not – yet we value employees based on their degrees or time spent in formal training settings.
We have to become more modern in our approach to how we think about, and then support, the development of our employees.
Decoding L&D Jargon: How Learning Can Use Machine Learning and AIDavid Blake
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning could prove to be invaluable as solutions to both hiring and modern skill development challenges. The problem? Many of us don’t actually know the differences, and most tech providers that say they do AI don’t actually provide exactly that.
This webinar provided a better understanding of these terms and how they can be used to benefit both employees and L&D management.

How to Train the Smartest People in the WorldDavid Blake
It is responsible for putting 12 people on the moon and sending countless more to space, and has some of the world’s most advanced technology and brightest minds inside its walls. But even NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) has learning challenges.Recognizing the shift is already under way in the technology, skills, and employee demographic that will lead them into the future, JPL has shifted its learning strategy and technology ecosystem.Join us for a question and answer session with NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Head of Technical Learning and Development Tony Gagliardo.
With the diverse, dispersed and continuously expanding workforce of today, relying on technical knowledge and skills isn’t enough to be successful anymore. Growing personally and professionally has never been more important. As AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson said in a recent interview with the New York Times, those who don't spend five to 10 hours a week learning “will obsolete themselves.”
As L&D providers, we are responsible for helping our employees stay relevant and grow. Although it may seem like it, it’s not about increasing available content. It’s about creating a learning ecosystem, made up of content, systems and people, that supports learners for their positions now and in the future.
How to Leverage Informal Learning to Create a Learning CultureDavid Blake

What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
