DETAILS:
Despite their best efforts, organizations of all sizes continue to struggle with distance learning for one simple reason: they are applying outdated training methods to a modern scenario. Instead of focusing on how to make classroom-based learning span the globe, organizations should consider how technology can unlock the full benefits of distance learning programs.

During this presentation, Marcel Messier, president and chief operating officer of Technomedia, will highlight insights and takeaways from an interesting real-life example in which innovative technology was leveraged to support a distance learning program. The goal was to encourage potential immigrants to perfect their knowledge of the French Canadian language and customs before entering the job market in Quebec. Messier will share how the technology-driven program helped ensure the readiness of these immigrants and worked to ensure harmonious relations between diverse communities in the province. In addition, attendees will learn more about the success of this new training delivery method over traditional class-based courses.

HR and learning professionals interested in best practices for leveraging technology to improve distance learning programs are encouraged to attend this informative session.
