Trying to design, develop, and deliver good learning experiences is hard enough. However, when you combine that with tight deadlines, demanding stakeholders, and finicky subject matter experts, it’s enough to make you want to pull your hair out. But it’s part of the job!

Managing your learning projects doesn’t have to be a headache. You just need some practical tips (and sometimes Jedi mind tricks) to make it a bit easier. That’s why, for this month’s Ask a Trainer episode, I invited training and e-learning expert Diane Elkins to join me in tackling your questions about managing learning projects. Enjoy!
