Who do you need on your learning technology implementation team?
Donald H Taylor, chairman, Learning Technologies Conference
You have the platform, the budget and the deadline. You’re all set to implement your learning technology. Now you just need one thing – a team to do it all. But what should the team do? Who should it involve? Should every member be committed to it full-time? And what can you do if – as with many implementation – the team consists of just one or two people?
In this LSG webinar, Learning Technologies chairman Donald H Taylor draws on his book Implementing Learning Technologies in the Workplace, the associated course, and other research to explore the crucial role of the team in putting a learning technology implementation to work.
If you have just bought, or are about to buy, a learning technology system of any sort, attend this webinar to learn how to assemble the best team to implement it.
- Why people matter less than roles
- The 4+1 core team roles
- Beyond the core: the crucial extra roles you need
- Ensuring your team has ‘structural influence’
- Co-opting skills from elsewhere
