Informal Learning: Are you ready? Are you able?
In the early 17th century, Galileo Galilei suggested that the Sun is at the center of the universe--and human knowledge took a great leap forward. And until recently, learning professionals believed that it wasn't possible to facilitate informal learning. Our professional community has begun to direct their attention to the fact that 70% of workplace learning happens informally and the world of technology is changing. This webinar will provide you with a methodological approach and a set of tools to assess the readiness of your organization for the adoption of informal learning technologies.
