The Results of The 2005 Battle of Blended Strategies!
Boy, did you miss something if you weren't here last Wednesday! Three teams (Red, Blue and Green) fought out a fun and furious 90 minute Blended Learning Strategy challenge and then faced the judges. Our thanks to Liz Stone (CEO of AITD), Simon Oaten (Project Manager e-learning, Westpac) and Arndria Seymour (Learning & Development Manager, Allianz Australia) for being our judging panel. Our participants did a fantastic job in working together in teams made up of very diverse industry representatives.
There were three fantastic Blended Strategies presented (each in less than 10 minutes) to answer the brief. One of the tools available to the three teams was LearningRoomTM which The Learning Group uses to manage blended strategies for our clients.
Some quotes from three of the very happy attendees:
"... thanks for the experience on Wednesday, it was well thought out, well organised and memorable - so a great credit to you and the team. I enjoyed working with peers in the L&D space and it gave me a great opportunity to calibrate my strategic thinking skills on a real problem... "
"What a great event! So stimulating and a very big learning experience for all. Thanks for putting it all together and ensuring it went so well. Not sure what we could do to 'top' this in the future. Again thanks so much for so much quality and enjoyment."
"Thanks to you and the team for a fun event on Wednesday. I really like the way you ran it."
