Tagoras

Not surprisingly, Tagoras has evolved a lot over the years. In this Leading Learning Podcast episode, Celisa Steele and Jeff Cobb talk about what Tagoras is and does as well as its relationship with Leading Learning: https://lnkd.in/eH8_egw2 Along the way they touch on the kinds of things that learning businesses need to be able to do, whether through the skills and knowledge of their internal team or by looking for outside support. If you are part of an organization in the business of continuing education and professional development, this is one you'll want to tune in to. #learningbusiness #associations #continuingeducation #professionaldevelopment

I love and help to promote all of our podcast episodes, but every once and a while there's an episode or two that I feel deserve some extra attention. That's true of this two part series on Cyril O. Houle's The Inquiring Mind. Part I - https://lnkd.in/dUxC5Smk Part II - https://lnkd.in/dhU_ZVqd Houle's thinking has had a great deal of influence on my own thinking about lifelong learning and lifelong learners and I think learning business professionals would benefit from greater awareness and appreciation of his work. Hopefully this series will contribute to that goal. I feel certain I would have come to Houle's work eventually, but I am grateful to my friend and Houle's son David Houle for making me aware of it much earlier than might have otherwise been the case. As we note in the episode, The Inquiring Mind is out of print, but it's definitely worth doing what you can to find a copy. And, of course, listen to these two episodes! #lifelonglearning #adulteducation #adultlearning #learningbusiness

A comprehensive post on the market for continuing education, professional development, and adult lifelong learning in general.

Assessing price sensitivity and willingness to pay is a significant part of our market assessment work. That and, of course, aligning price with value to help organizations maximize revenue from their educational programming. These principles continually come into play.

Many organizations issue badges, certificates, and other credentials to verify that learners have completed their education programs. The hope, more or less explicit, is that these credentials actually have value out in the employment market. But how can learners easily manage their credentials and share them with employers? And how do employers know they are valid? The answer is "standards" - and that's exactly what we will be discussing in today's Leading Learning Webinar, Adding Value to Skills-Based Credentials with Digital Standards. If you are serious about improving your digital credentialing efforts this year, you really don't want to miss it.
