1. Teaching About Virus Handling? As my mailbox fills up with the latest virus that is making its rounds (MyDoom), I have a question for TRENDS
readers:
How are you teaching your employees about each new worm or virus? Is this being done with "memo" or with an e-Learning module? Are you doing any assessment to see how well people understand?
Can you please send me a quick email to emasie@masie.com with you comments and I will turn it around in 48 hours with a special report.
2. e-Learning Political Action Committee: I have organized a new group,
The e-Learning PAC (Political Action Committee). The purpose of this group is to work with both parties and all candidates for national office on a few key issues related to the growth of e-Learning.
The e-Learning PAC will push an agenda that includes these types of key
issues:
* Removing federal and state barriers to accepting e-Learning programs as an option for Continuing Education, Certification or Compliance requirement.
* Leveraging e-Learning for workforce development and employability.
* Supporting research into the effectiveness of e-Learning methodology.
* Supporting standards in the learning arena.
If you are interested in being involved with e-Learning PAC, please send an email to emasie@masie.com
3. Tip for Trainers: Start your virtual classes at an odd time, such as 1:04 PM rather than 1:00 PM. You will get a much more remembered on-time arrival of learners. We have been doing that for several of our programs and it really works!
4. BizLearn 2004 Launched: The MASIE Center is pleased to announce its
6th Annual Business of Learning Conference. If you are in involved in
the Selling, Marketing or Procurement of Learning Products, Systems or Services, BizLearn is for you. It will be held in Baltimore, Maryland on April 19 and 20. Registration and information at http://www.masie.com
