Focus on Opportunity and Cost

Opportunity and Cost Go Hand in Hand In working with professional associations, nonprofits, and universities, I have been able to observe different approaches in making a decision on selecting a learning management system, deciding on an integration with an association management software, providing a single sign-on, and even in considering costs related to recording live continuing education sessions. Almost always the initial consideration is cost, which I recognize as a real concern having worked at an association for over a decade. And granted, any responsible staff person evaluating a purchase should consider costs to the organization. However, solely considering costs [...]

The Benefits of Budget Time: Planning to Succeed

Annual Budget Creating your annual budget is a necessary evil, but it also can be a time for measuring past performance and planning for greater success in the future.  All too often, next year’s budget is a mere duplication of the prior year’s budget.  For some of you, the education department is the last in your organization to budget because you are put in the position of filling any revenue shortfall to create a balanced budget.  Am I the only one that has heard, “Can you increase your budgeted revenue to cover….”? Budget Process A typical budget process includes review [...]

Distill Information with Motion Graphics

Motion Graphic: Why You Need Them I love Mr. Rogers. Always have and always will. Like many other kids growing up, the phrase “Won’t you be my neighbor?” was a staple of my childhood. The way Mr. Rogers related with us kids, and even adults, was something profound -- revolutionary even! He taught with words of course, but more importantly, he SHOWED us. Watching Daniel the Tiger deal with the emotion of a current event, or watching Officer Clemmons, an African American, share a kiddy pool with Mr. Rogers as they cooled off their feet, was far more impactful than [...]

What You Talking About?  No Learning Styles? 

A nasal learner struggles with an odorless textbook. Are Learning Styles a Myth? At a recent conference I attended, a presenter committed blasphemy.  He suggested that learning styles were a MYTH.  There were audible gasps from the crowd.  I felt my blood pressure start to rise and decided to lead the rebellion against this wickedness.  After all, I know my learning style; I know the learning styles of my children, and I tutor law students respecting their learning styles. On a break at the conference, I volunteered to speak at the conference next year with a presentation to counter this sacrilege. [...]

Volunteer Appreciation: Show Them You Care!

Volunteer Appreciation Many InReach clients are professional organizations that rely heavily on volunteers to develop and deliver professional continuing education. Because of this, volunteer planners and presenters play a vital role in the success of continuing education offered by associations, law schools, medical associations, and other organizations. Although CE professionals recognize this symbiotic relationship and understand its importance, in practice, few have implemented measures to nurture, measure, or improve relationships with volunteers. As a result, most CE organizations limit volunteer recognition to a simple speaking gift — yet, there is so much more that can be [...]
