| | Mark your calendar for July 8th, when bestselling author and former chapter president Sophie Oberstein presents “10 Steps to Successful Coaching.” During this interactive, one-hour workshop, you´ll take part in coaching exercises derived from content from Oberstein´s new book of the same title. You will experience coaching´s benefits while dusting off your own innate coaching abilities.
A bonus ASTD-PHL event on July 28 brings Bob Pike Group´s Rich Meiss to the nearby Airport Renaissance Hotel, for "Motivating the Adult Learner." All are welcomed to register for this event hosted by our Delaware geographical interest group.
We do NOT host an August chapter program. Enjoy the break!
Return September 9th for E-Learning expert Bobbe Baggio´s "Visual Design for E-learning." Visual design is the gateway to the cognitive and affective domains of our learners’ brains. Perhaps you already know that as many as 85% of learners depend most on visuals versus other learning modalities. Yet how much energy do you put into crafting your training visuals? Let Dr. Baggio show you how to design your visuals so they’re as effective as they can be, no matter what graphic software or presentation platform you embrace.
Register early for October 14th´s program, “Successful Keys to Outsourcing: Onshore and Offshore,” presented by Lee Aycoth of Aptara. Overseas utsourcing brings competitive pricing, yet this only part of the picture. You´ll also need to navigate the inevitable cultural differences exposed when working with an overseas provider. How can you get the best of both worlds - onshore familiarity and expertise, plus offshore production efficiencies? What are the best practices used by US training professionals who engage offshore teams? See how outsourcing and offshoring can help you meet your training goals while preserving quality.
