SPRING SERIES: FORMALIZING INFORMAL LEARNING

Tuesday, April 13th -- Formalizing Informal Learning: What Are we Talking About

*RECORDING AVAILABLE*

The buzz about informal learning has turned into a clamor. Organizations know they need to jump onto this bandwagon, but they worry about how. Formal learning is well established and is well understood. Yet, informal learning seems obvious but too ill-defined. Now is the time to move into the third dimension of learning, where formal and informal learning intersects with intention. Some experts have called this 'formalizing informal learning' while others term it 'non-formal' learning.

Come and join me in this webinar to learn the distinctions between formal, informal and non-formal learning, and the learning theory behind them. We will explore how then these can be applied in your organization to extend, enable and enhance learning in effective ways never possible before. And we will look at a model for learning that moves beyond the linear either/or choice of formal - informal, and takes us into a third dimension drive by the new social media tools.

Wednesday, May 12th -- Formalizing Informal Learning: When and How

**RECORDING AVAILABLE*

The buzz about Learning 2.0 and Social Learning has turned into a clamor. Organizations know they need to jump onto this bandwagon, but they worry about how. Formal learning is well established and is well understood. Informal learning seems obvious but too ill-defined. Now is the time to move into the third dimension of learning, where formal and informal learning intersects with intention. Some experts have called this 'formalizing informal learning' while others term it 'non-formal' learning. Regardless of what it's called, this third dimension extends, enables and enhances learning in ways never possible before.

Identifying and describing these new learning approaches and technologies is the easy part. So, come and join me to learn an approach to when and how you should formalize informal learning in your organization, how to market it to senior management, mid-management and the workforce, and what it takes to successfully implement this third dimension learning to produce powerful results.

Thursday, June 10th -- Formalizing Informal Learning: Case Studies

** 2:00-3:00pm ET.

The buzz about Learning 2.0 and Social Learning has turned into a clamor. Organizations know they need to jump onto this bandwagon, but they worry about how. Formal learning is well established and is well understood. Informal learning seems obvious but too ill-defined. Now is the time to move into the third dimension of learning, where formal and informal learning intersects with intention. Some experts have called this 'formalizing informal learning' while others term it 'non-formal' learning. Regardless of what it's called, this third dimension extends, enables and enhances learning in ways never possible before.

In this webinar we will go into case studies from these four organizations: Genentech, Google, Toshiba America and Qualcomm. And, we will analyze these case studies to learn how they effectively formalized informal learning to produce tangible and measurable results in their organization.

Wednesday, June 16th, Sponsored by ASTD-LA - e-Learning: Great Design, Content and Technology is Necessary, but Effective Implementation is Required

**1:00 - 2:00pm ET

Great content, excellent design, effective tools and the right technologies are all certainly necessary to the success of any e-learning program - course or LMS/LCMS. However, if that's all you have, you may well end up with a fantastic program, but no learners wanting to use it, managers willing to support it, or an organization that makes it a priority. In order to ensure your e-learning is used, used effectively, and produces the results you've designed it to requires that you take its implementation seriously.

By applying proven techniques and approaches from change management and consumer marketing, you can develop an implementation plan to motivate your learners, engage your managers and energize your organization. Come and learn from Lance Dublin, co-author of the ASTD capstone book, "Implementing e-Learning", what works and what doesn't - and why. And, leave understanding how successful companies are applying a comprehensive framework for implementing e-learning successfully based Lance's an innovative and proven I-3 Change Implementation Model.

 

Thursday June 17th, Sponsored by Learn.com - What is 'Formalizing Informal Learning' Anyway?

** 2:00 - 3:00pm ET

The buzz about Learning 2.0, informal learning and social learning has turned into a clamor. Organizations know they need to jump onto this bandwagon, but they worry about how. Formal learning is well established and is well understood. Informal learning seems obvious, but too ill-defined for many. So, pundits and experts have begun to talk about 'formalizing informal learning' as the next important learning approach organizations need to adopt. But, what does this mean? What is 'formalizing informal learning' really? How do you know when it's the right choice? And then how do you actually do it?

This webinar will go into four case studies from the Lance Dublin's CLO Magazine article, 'Formalizing Informal Learning.' It looks at how Genentech, Google, Toshiba America and Qualcomm approached blending formal, informal and social learning technologies and approaches into effective solutions. And most importantly, solutions to solve real business problems and produce tangible and measurable results.
