Dear list member, We cordially invite you to participate in the first of a four part online seminar series titled “Elearning – making the MOST of your Investment”. This session is of particular value for those involved with eLearning and Training for the US Government and associated organizations. There will be valuable insights, strategies and recent offering for this group made available. An eLearning expert and thought leader from the NTIS will share important and timely changes. Others, outside of the US Government will also find this session interesting, valuable and thought provoking. Please join your industry peers as they participate in this timely and exciting topic.
Anyone who has been involved in eLearning projects understands the problems and issues. In this series we will examine four of the main issues that plaque eLearning projects and that eliminate (or nearly eliminate) any ROI. These are;
• User Fees! The practice of charging you more for each person who can now take eLearning on you platform
• Installations of eLearning platforms that take months and months, all charged to you at a high T&M rate
• Poor Scalability that has you either eliminating some potential users, or adding “box after box” to accommodate users
• Poor stability, leaving your users frustrated, high call volume to the call center and certain distain for eLearning in general
This seminar series examines each topic, exposes the fallacies generally used by vendors to explain each, and gives you as an eLearning professional insights and arms you with knowledge. Then as you speak with others, negotiate with vendors, or simply attempt to do you job to your maximum potential you will have the power to do the best possible. Oh and the best part, these are FREE!! The schedule of these seminar are as follows; (replays will be available on request, but also FREE!!)

During this first session, Mr. Case and our SME (Subject Matter Expert) from NTIS (National Technical Information Service) will share some statistics on how expensive User Fees can be. Also they will present how some companies have dealt with User Fees and how they have modified their exposure to their eLearning participants so they can meet their budgets. Additionally they will go over some innovative things that have been accomplished by organizations that have the luxury of platforms with out User Fees. Finally they will be asking for you participation in adding your own ideas about User Fees and what you would use a platform for that does not have User Fees. Just Imagine for a moment…what kind of eLearning Return on Investment would you realize if there were no User Fees!
With no User Fees, No upload Fees, no maintenance Fees, no upgrade Fees, in fact no other fees than the license fee, it is now possible to accomplish Great Things for a very large audience. Yes, with no user fees, you can invite ALL of your customers to take eLearning, Yes you can invite prospective customers to take eLearning. Yes before you even ask, YES, you could invite the entire world to take eLearning
If you are involved with any aspect of developing and fielding effective eLearning, we encourage you to attend these valuable seminars as we presents fresh ideas that will serve as a thought-provoking basis for decision-makers to map a sensible eLearning vision going forward.
