Teaching Ourselves to Fish: From Vendor to In-House Solution

From the TechKnowledge 2016 Conference: Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.' How does this saying apply to a corporate university? In this session, you'll learn how the team at Spectrum Health incorporated technology into a traditional instructor-led training program and built a course that would address the complexities and changing environment of healthcare. They began by working with an external vendor who guided them through the maze of technology, subject matter experts, and detailed content to build a high-tech course that both addressed the complex healthcare environment and incorporated learning technologies. But with the complex content and high-tech solution came changes and updates that the team was not equipped (with either technical knowledge or budget) to handle. Hear how the team started with a vision for something big and unique, initially partnering with outside experts to make this vision a reality, and taught themselves to fish along the way to transform into a confident, technologically capable group that could sustain this rapidly changing curriculum. You'll gain ideas and that extra oomph of confidence to create a strategy for adding a technology-rich solution to your organization's curriculum.
