It goes without saying that developing a course for online learning and training is different from preparing face-to-face learning and training. Some aspects translate well from offline to online, while other aspects require changes in approach and a dedicated methodology. With this webinar, we will:
- contribute to and furthering the discussion
- share lessons-learned
- help individuals and organisations to make the most of online learning and training
We will explore the following topics in break-out sessions, which will allow for in-depth discussion with our experts:
- Is online learning more effective than traditional learning? ( with Amb. Kishan Rana)
- Why is e-learning useful in the UN system? (with Amb. Petru Dumitriu)
- What are some of the new approaches in personalised corporate learning? (with Ms Bodil Neuenschwander)
The webinar is organised as part of the Conference Tech Lab’s series of live discussions. Join us on Thursday, 23rd April at 12:00 UTC (14:00 CEST) to push the conversation forward.
