The conference is packed to the rafters with over a dozen out of the box sessions delivered by talented and innovative learning designers. We have set the bar ‘way high’ and offer you a fantastic program that you should not miss.

The conference will be vibrant, focused and embracing. The format is tight, the content is strong, and you can expect each and every presenter to give it their awesome best to engage and share their direct experiences with you.

People who should attend this conference are learning professionals on the front-line of managing, designing, developing, writing, and delivering training through instructor-led, e-learning and blended methods. As always, an open mind is a prerequisite to maximising the positive impact of a LearnX event.

Live webinar - Instructional Design Trends 2012

• What’s really going on out there in the world of Instructional Design? What tools and methodologies are most commonly used to create effective and engaging learning in organisations? Are Instructional Designers doing pure design or are they wearing SME and Author hats too?

• An academic approach to the quality of recorded voice in audio-learning, indicates what advantages content-providers might gain from employing trained, professional actors to deliver their content

• The session will show that a provision of such professional vocal skill, far from a “luxury option”, is essential in successfully engaging eLearners.

Beyond learning outcomes

• Does the real value of training reach beyond the requested learning outcomes? • Does eLearning contribute to operational and thought silos if not supported through virtual communities? • Should breaking down operational and thought silos be served by a dedicated training program, or mandated as a requisite outcome of every training program?
