Learning Beyond The Course : An ELN Conference

If you talk about elearning in the workplace, most people think of self-study courses delivered via computer. Of course this can be an effective way to meet a business need, but elearning now encompasses far more than this: mobile learning, simulations, 3D learning environments, performance support systems, knowledge management, informal media, social learning and more.

The elearning network will be hosting a conference on Friday 24th September at Holborn Bars in London and Graeme Duncan, Caspian Learning CEO and serious gaming expert, will be speaking at the ‘Learning Beyond the Course’ event.

The purpose of the conference will be to investigate learning technologies in the broadest sense, identify when each form of elearning is likely to be effective, and learn from those who have successfully thought beyond the confines of the course in the past.

Not Just a Conference, but a Game Too

This conference will run as a game. Intrigued? Come, play and learn. The two winners will receive a free place on the Rapid eLearning Development (ReD) course. Part 3D computer game, part social network, part collaborative learning, the ReD course will teach you how to build effective elearning and informal media using leading elearning author tools.

Hopefully we’ll have some videos of the conference to follow!
