In the best of traditions, I'll also be attending and speaking at Online Educa Berlin this year.
You'll find me in the BUS25 session 'Demonstrating Value Back at Work'. The idea of this session is not only to reflect on the impact of our learning initiatives and our learning culture, but also make a concrete list of ideas and actions to take back home. My contribution will be loosely based upon the blog series 'learning doesn't HAVE value, it GETS value'.
- Part I - Kirkpatrick and friends and enemies : The current pragmatic 'state of the art' is to apply half of the Kirkpatrick model. Trends and insights within the 50 years that followed the initial model suggest we might rethink evaluation of learning.
- Part II - Divergence: so much to potentially measure : In the next post of this reflection, we'll take a hike along various approaches and models for tracking or proving impact of learning and have a short thought on each of them.
- Part IIIa - Convergence: a suggestion for the pragmatic and one for the revolutionary : I'll make a suggestion for 2 rough and draft models. One for the pragmatic that tweaks the dominant Kirkpatrick model,
- Part IIIb - ... and one for the revolutionary that throws it away and starts allover working backwards, holistic and adaptive.
As a participant, I'll be attending Hans' workshop "Preparing Together for the Future of Corporate Learning" in the pre-conference programme. It will be an exercise based around scenario planning as I understand it.
Then, I plan to follow most of the Business Educa track this year.
I'd also like to meet up and talk to people about the expectations they have on leadership development specifically.
And of course, I will love to be back in Berlin after a year. It's a great place to be. How many days still before November 30?
