How do we make sure that our stakeholders and teams understand the design vision, execution plan, and associated benefits?

Interactive learning builds long-term memory and helps learner stay focused. Are you using it in your course? In the early days of e-learning, the format most instructors used for creating an online course mimicked the classic lecture format. Many courses were text-based, or included taped lectures from actual seminars. Learners watched the videos, took notes, and submitted coursework.

Customization is crucial for an effective LMS strategy. A one-size-fits-all approach no longer works for diverse and dynamic organizations. Customizable LMS platforms allow tailored learning experiences that meet specific company needs, boost user engagement, and seamlessly integrate with existing systems.

When a customer has a good experience with a company, he or she tells about 9 people on average. 1 This means that great customer service is one of the most effective (not to mention free) modes of advertising for businesses. On the flip side, whereas a satisfied customer will refer 9 people to a business, an angry customer will deter at least 16 potential customers from a company. 2 Clearly, the power to build up or tear down a business is in the hands of customers.
