Session Description

Whether it's an online meeting, a presentation via webinar, or live online training, engagement is the main question on everyone's mind. Will it be worth my time to attend or will it be an opportunity to check email instead? Live online meeting technology is powerful and has made it easy to connect with people from anywhere in the world at any time, yet we often still struggle with getting everyone to interact.

Interaction is the answer to successful engagement and using the features of the platform is the answer to interaction. However, the features alone do not engage the participants. It is what you choose to do with those features that will make the difference in your next virtual training, webinar, or meeting. Learn what you can do to be successful in the virtual environment and avoid everyone asking for a recording or a copy of the slides five minutes into your next virtual training.

Kassy discuss design considerations for WebEx, Zoom, Adobe Connect, other platforms, but will deliver this session live online using Zoom.

Application on the Job

  • Determine the appropriate level of interaction to create effective live online training.
  • Analyze activities for specific engagement techniques to apply to your own learning design.
  • Use a checklist of platform features to optimize the investment in your virtual training technology.
