 * Providing Professional Development 24/7: Restructuring How We Deliver Training **

It’s time to do more with less. Learn innovative and cost-effective strategies that will help your department provide on-going professional development anytime, anywhere. With increasingly limited resources and high demands from faculty and staff, institutions are finding it difficult to provide training in a cost-effective manner. This session will explore a series of online tools faculty and staff can use to provide training 24/7.

Dr. Denise Swett, Vice President, Student Services Student Services, will review strategies and specifically discuss Go2Knowledge, an on-demand platform for providing professional development 24/7.

// Interactivity // The presentation will include the use of podcasts, web conferencing and videos, all of which are critical to creating a dynamic and engaging learning environment. The presenters will focus on how to utilize these tools to deliver and enhance face-to-face training, online training and on-demand training, so that you can do more with less. We will then ask participants to explain and share what they are currently doing on their campuses to solve issues related to providing 24/7 professional development. Next we will discuss the use of podcasts, web conferencing and videos. We will define each of these tools and explain educational applications. We will demo examples. Finally, we will explain and demonstrate Go2Knowledge, a series of on-demand professional development trainings.
