190 - Intellinex (E&Y Spin-off) Expands By Buying teach.com; One More Appeal for e-Voting

1. Intellinex (E&Y Spin-off) Expands By Buying teach.com: For the past few
years, I have been predicting that the "Big 5" of international accounting
and consulting companies would enter the e-Learning space as significant
players. Earlier this fall, Intellinex, the spin-off of Ernst & Young was
announced. Now, they are starting an expansion process by announcing their
first acquisition. Today, they announced they purchased e-Learning content
company in the IT arena, teach.com Watch this company, led by Mike Powers,
as it aggressively moves into this arena.
2. TechLearn Guide and Sessions On-Line & Downloadable - 303 Sessions

3. Ways to Involve Teleworkers - A Practical Brainstorm: We would like to
open a brainstorm amongst TRENDS readers about how to involve teleworkers in
learning and training activities. What are effective ideas for adding
remote workers to the formal and informal learning process and culture?
This is a pragmatic question for The MASIE Center, as we adding our first
teleworker, Craig Bond, our new manager of the e-Learning CONSORTIUM and
Benchmarking. Can you send us some ideas for engagement of teleworkers in
the learning culture to telework@masie.com We will post a summary in a
future TRENDS.
4. One More Appeal for e-Voting: Last year, I got into trouble with this
suggestion, when I urged a movement towards on-line voting. However, I will
push the point again. As the U.S. readers of TRENDS approach the upcoming
elections, it would be a very powerful shift to allow well secured and
verified on-line voting option for citizens. I believe that we would
increase the size of the voting population and would start to see more
content made available for voters.
