In your organization, there is an uneven distribution of the knowledge needed to efficiently run the business and effectively serve your customers. Almost every company offers some form of training or classes or seminars to employees (and sometimes to customers) but very few are succeeding in getting those "students" to learn. In this workshop, we will explore the use of technology and E-Learning environments to improve the actual knowledge transfer in your organization.
