This Month’s Topic: Grand Openings! Hooking Learners From the Very Beginning

With any training program you create, you’ve just got a few minutes to make your case. If your training doesn’t address this question, “Why should I spend my time on this?” you might as well be fishing on a frozen lake. How do you break the ice? How do you communicate the value of your training and the benefits it will provide for your learners? Bring your favorite example of an outstanding opening for a training program, either online or classroom style. We’ll share our examples and work together on a case study to turn a “bland opening” into a “grand opening.”

Jennie Thede from IdeaLearning Group will facilitate the free session. You can also participate or follow our live tweets @CollabLearn on twitter.

Registration is free but is required. Please give us 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel.
