Must See Six: December

2016-04-20T20:56:03-05:00

Among our “must see” list this month is a bit of self-reflection. We discuss how to provide continuing education well to members, but what about for ourselves and our staffs? The last inclusion, “The Case for Professional Development in the Nonprofit Sector” reminds us that, as the expression goes, it is often the shoemaker’s children who go barefoot. I hope this edition of the Must See Six is informative and inspirational to you as 2013 winds down and 2014 charges ahead. The Future Is Now, Inc Magazine At my company, we frequently organize small group dinners to generate discussion about the [...]

Bundle up for the winter!

I don’t frequent McDonald’s much anymore now that my kids have outgrown Happy Meals. But I happened to be in there yesterday (buying a gift card) and witnessed a befuddled youngster turn to mom in desperation after 5 menu questions (yes, 5) and say “why do I have to make so many decisions?” McDonald’s new Happy Meal format gives your toddler choices at entrée, sides (2 of them), drink and toy. This seems ludicrous to me. Adults can’t even order off the menu without pause (despite staring at for 5 minutes while standing in line), so why would you ask a [...]

The Online Continuing Education Maturity Curve

2017-09-14T07:53:06-05:00

This article originally appeared in the International Association of Continuing Education & Training newsletter. In the past decade, continuing education (CE) has experienced a distinct trend with respect to the stages of maturity CE providers go through to bring the benefit of online CE to their members and participants. Most member organizations started at the lowest level of maturity, which was to provide in-person events that allowed participants to earn CE credits. Though the CE was provided in-person (not online), some organizations utilized the Internet to take event registrations from their members — a small first step towards online CE. The [...]

What Healthcare.gov Teaches Us

2017-09-14T07:53:06-05:00

When I saw the recent post about Healthcare.gov on the Tagoras blog, I braced myself for an overly political article. I was pleasantly surprised though when instead I read a practical piece on the increasingly strong tie between service delivery, specifically for education, and technology. For many associations, successful delivery of continuing education is dependent upon reliable online resources. (Just like the success of the Affordable Healthcare Act is largely dependent on Healthcare.gov.) Since executive directors and CEOs are rightfully engaged in continuing education programs, they now also need to be engaged in the relevant technology decisions and conversations. Gone are [...]
