Using Appropriate Platforms to Facilitate Virtual Classroom Learning

What is this programme about?

One of the common digital learning strategies used by companies is the adoption of instructor-led virtual classroom learning to complement face to face instructor-led learning engagement. Most L&D practitioners are familiar with using webinars to share knowledge. But for instructor-led virtual classroom learning to be successful in achieving the targeted learning and performance outcomes, there has to be a differentiated approach towards the design and delivery of the learning solution with the right learning technology platform being used.
