The 5 Greatest Insights from #MimeoWebinars This Year

It’s that time of year again: round-up season when you get lists of the best of everything.

This year, we started our L&D Webinar Series, partnering with thought leaders across the industry to bring best practices and trends to our community of learning professionals.

In the spirit of the season, here’s a list of the 5 greatest insights (and links to watch the webinars yourself!)

1. People are the most consequential factors in the corporate environment.

Rebecca Callahan from Hogan Assessments broke down the reason why we need to invest in tools for L&D: an organization cannot exist without its people. Check out A Ninja’s Guide to Personality Assessments for more from Rebecca on how to leverage personality assessments for your L&D program.

2. Learning actually takes place in the brain. Media just helps.

Jonathan Halls broke down the difference between digital and “traditional” training content. Check out this webinar on how to use digital content to add more personalization to your L&D program.

3. Prepare for blended learning by redesigning and reskilling.

Jennifer Hofmann, CEO of InSync Training, shared how to prepare for a world of blended learning by giving your training team new skills and your training courses a refresher. Tune into the State of Corporate Learning for more.
