Description:

An interactive virtual classroom is not your usual Webinar, Web conference, or online event. It is an online instructional approach that involves learners who work from individual computers and continually interact with instructors and their classmates. Mentoring has long been a successful technique for talent development. Business leaders recognize the benefits of mentoring especially today, because mentoring technology fosters and manages large numbers of mentoring relationships. This teleconference will focus on developing an understanding of both of these learning approaches and how they can make a difference, especially since so much corporate learning content is being repurposed for online use rather than using the traditional face-to-face classroom.

Agenda:

• Description and examples of virtual classroom learning along with some case studies and best practices
• Discussion of successful mentoring and how technology contributes to the creation of mentoring relationships and their long-term effectiveness
