Bringing the Flipped Classroom to CE

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

Education never stops – we hear that every day. And it’s true; people continue to learn long after they have left the comfort of the classroom or lecture hall. For many, career choices demand certain certifications and compliance requirements, which necessitates the need for professional education. Here’s the thing – while the importance of education remains unchanged, the way professionals prefer to learn has changed drastically. Even in just the last few years, the influx of younger professionals entering the workforce has created a demand for alternative learning methods, and we’re seeing a shift in the way continuing education providers design [...]

Build vs Buy- Calculate your True Costs

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

In the last post we touched on the costs involved in building your own continuing education management system (CEMS). Many people assume that after the initial development costs all they have to do is sit back and watch the money pour in. This approach does not take into account the true and total cost of ownership, and has led to many nasty surprises and blown budgets. So, before committing to anything, it pays to consider the true and total cost of owning a software system. Hardware When building your own CEMS one of the first things you’ll have to consider is [...]

Must See Six: July

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

This month, we thought we’d shake things up and set up our Must See Six a little differently. We’ve found a great infographic of the Association for Talent Development that walks you through the 5 steps on creating a knowledge sharing culture, and then found an article that expands on each of the five steps. Why knowledge sharing? Because if you are in the world of CE, whether it is with an association or a corporation, ultimately your goal is the same—to facilitate the acquisition of knowledge. The Knowledge Sharing Journey Follow these 5 steps to develop a culture of knowledge [...]

Sticky Note Wisdom

2016-09-16T16:31:44-05:00

I just returned from a few days at the annual AICPA Interchange Conference. This annual event brings together the leaders of state CPA societies for informative and educational sessions on issues facing their industry. Tom Hood, the CEO at the Maryland Association of CPA’s and its subsidiary the Business Learning Institute, held a fabulous general session that focused on collaboration and the pronouncement of the “sticky note” as the world’s most powerful collaboration tool. Ironic that Tom is a technology junkie, but paper sticky notes and black sharpies are his tools of choice. He’s also a customer, so of course, that makes him brilliant. The exercise [...]

Build vs Buy – Topics to Consider

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

When deciding to implement a continuing education management system (CEMS) you are faced with a ton of decisions. One of the biggest questions is: Should you develop a system from scratch or buy something off the shelf? While we are a CEMS provider, we love, respect and embrace the spirit of DIY innovation. So let’s explore this topic a bit more and discuss some important things to consider. Immediacy In many way’s we’re all still children. When we want something, we want it NOW, especially if we’ve already paid for it! The same is true for a CEMS. Once the need [...]

Get more mileage out of your next in-person event

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

There’s no doubt, in-person events are a huge benefit to your members and your organization is going to continue to invest in them. A few times a year you are able to gather a community of like-minded professionals to learn, network and ultimately advance the profession. But, there’s a hefty price tag to securing venues, catering, speakers and all of the various expenses that go into an in-person event. And, what happens to the people that can’t leave the office for four days, fly across the country and participate in your fabulous event? What if you could continue to grow your [...]

Getting Management Buy-In

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

Change is hard. No matter how much a person, or organization, claims to embrace change, it always takes some convincing. Even when you are making improvements and upgrading systems and processes, there is a tendency to cling on to the old, familiar ways of doing things. So, as you prepare to either upgrade your training program, or implement a brand new one you have to consider how to get the necessary management support. Jump-start the process by following these three steps: 1. Sell the value In order to change people have to be convinced that it is in their best interests. [...]

What to Look for in an Online Education System

2025-11-24T16:32:13-06:00

Previously, we talked about why you should consider bringing your onboarding, training and continuing education programs in-house and online. For many people it stops at talk, since the search for the right system can become daunting. The alphabet soup of TMS (Talent Management System), LMS (Learning Management System) and CEMS (Continuing Education Management System), and the differences between the three can seem like you’re reading hieroglyphics. The trick is in the names, so here’s your Rosetta Stone when it comes to deciphering online learning tools. A Talent Management System does just that, manage talent. And while it may have all the [...]
