Abstract: Organizations today, in the face of increased global competition, need educated managers and employees who can solve problems, understand complex issues, and learn new skills quickly. This means that training organizations need to provide learning opportunities that effectively address these issues in ways that produce high retention rates.

Abstract: You’re considering a move from traditional training to e-learning, but you’re not sure if the returns will be significant. In fact, employees are better able to retain and transfer what they’ve learned with Web-based training (WBT) and computer-based training (CBT). And typically, with these methods, the time a worker spends being trained is reduced by about 40 percent. Learn more about how e-learning can benefit you.
Abstract: How people learn is now as important as what people learn. Organizations that appreciate new learning styles and provide their employees with Web 2.0 tools, such as wikis, blogs, video capturing and editing applications, and virtual worlds, have a greater chance of creating a successful learning process. The question is not whether you can benefit from informal learning initiatives, but how to implement them successfully.
Abstract: Emerging technologies promise the possibility of big benefits. But real success comes only when a technology’s strengths outweigh its limitations. In the field of learning management, this often means user support must be among the solution’s strengths if it is to thrive. Discover how users have influenced today’s top five e-learning learning trends, and how you can use them to unlock your organization’s full potential.
Abstract: In the past, training was seen as a preventive action or default activity. Then learning came into the forefront as a proactive initiative that was more strongly linked to enhancing performance. This radical change from training to learning has created a new awareness of measurement that chief executive officers (CEO) need to take note of. Discover the 7 key learning indicators that can get you started on the right path.
Abstract: To understand the meaning and value of dynamic content, you must first look at the various approaches to e-learning. Traditional e-learning hard-bakes content into static material, causing updates to become a very lengthy process. Dynamic content strategies, however, delivered through evolving learning content management (LCM) technologies, provide efficient, error-free content revision. Find out how LCM can benefit you.
Abstract: Understanding the effectiveness of learning programs on workforce performance and the organization as a whole is what drives continuous improvement. This white paper describes how talent-based learning provides a framework to track the effectiveness of learning management across an organization and integrate those findings to improve workforce performance and productivity.
Abstract: Contemporary firms must recognize a fundamental shift in the management of distribution activities as a strategic driver of their competitive success. Instead of the traditional focus on pushing products to customers through distribution channels, there is a need to migrate toward adaptive distribution networks. Such networks focus on managing the flow orders from customers by providing them with high levels of convenience while preserving attention to responsiveness and total distribution costs.
