You've heard about so-called elearning 2.0, the use of social networking tools to support informal learning, but do you know how to put it into practice? What do FaceBook and Ning have to do with business? A lot, actually. In this session we'll explore tools like blogs, wikis, and more, and consider the role they can play in organizational execution and innovation. We are talking about knowledge management, collaboration, and more, and not only within the organization but with partners and customers. We'll look at how these tools can support formal learning, leading to better outcomes, and also how they support informal learning. Get on top of the trends, and start leveraging your organization's knowledge to perform faster and better.
