Upside Learning will be conducting its 1st webinar for 2012 titled ‘Learner Driven Learning Management System, in a Global Environment’ in association with Brandon Hall Group.

In today's global environment, learners don't just need their LMS to be technologically advanced but they need it to be designed for 'them - the end users'. They look for an experience that is intuitive, enjoyable, and personalized to their organization's values and cultural preferences. Based on this premise, Upside Learning will be conducting a free webinar titled 'Learner Driven Learning Management System in a Global Environment' in association with Brandon Hall Group. Scheduled on 22nd March 2012 at 1 PM EDT, this would be the company's first webinar for 2012.

To be hosted by Stacey Harris, VP, Research and Advisory Services at Brandon Hall Group, and Jason Clymer, VP Sales (North America) at Upside Learning, the webinar will highlight some simple key practices that can help organizations design their LMS interface, workflow and access pages to improve the user experience for their trainers and learners from a global perspective. It will cover topics like understanding the learning audience expectations, best practices in designing LMS interface and workflows, and accessing an LMS in a mobile environment.

The webinar will also provide insights on engaging global learning audiences and LMS usability, and will be supported by relevant examples of learner driven LMS experiences created and implemented by Upside Learning. This 1 hour session will be concluded by a Q&A session wherein the participants would have an opportunity to interact with the hosts.

"With the growing importance of User Experience (UX), it is imperative that the Learning Management Systems now provide learners with more than just features and modules. The systems have to offer a learning environment for the learners that will induce them to learn.", comments Jason Clymer. Further he adds, "This webinar is recommended for organizations/ individuals who are planning to buy an LMS or switch to a new one but are unsure about designing a user friendly and learner driven learning experience for a global audience."

The 60 minute webinar will be held on 22nd March 2012 at 1:00 PM EDT and registration is available at: http://go.brandonhall.com/learner_driven_LMS_global.
