Link & Learn webinar: Innovation in L&D Systems

9 March 2023 1pm – 2pm

We are delighted to kick off the 2023 series of Link & Learn webinars with a look into “Innovation in L&D Systems”.

Firstly, Senior Learnovate Researcher Ilse White, share her thoughts on the research about the latest developments, biggest challenges and opportunities of leveraging technology across business, education and public service.

Challenges facing some L&D professionals can include not understanding or completing the practical steps upfront and end up with solutions that sounded good during the demo but that led to multi-year implementation projects. Our keynote for this Link & Learn will also include some lessons learnt, practical advice, an overview of the type of offerings, how you go about requirement scoping and much more.

The panel discussion will be chaired by the Head of Innovation at Learning Pool, Lindsey Coode, who has a huge amount of experience in this space and will delve further into the latest innovations in L&D systems with a panel of experts from this field. Full details of our panelists will be announced shortly.

As always we encourage audience participation and questions and will share any outputs post event. We will also give attendees the opportunity to network via our state of the art event platform Hopin.
