The Learning Development Conference 2022 for LDA Members

$500.00

This is a time of growth and excitement for learning and development (L&D). Organizations need to cope with the increasing rate of change and the more virtual world that’s emerged. Thus, there’s greater demand for upskilling and continual improvement.

We also are seeing ever-faster emergence of technologies with promises to deliver new capabilities to meet learning and performance needs. Finally, there’s a growing body of converging evidence that suggests which practices actually work and lead to the best outcomes.

On the other hand there’s evidence that we are not ready: content-dump and knowledge test, smile sheets, and more. In short, we are often still applying 20th century technologies and approaches to 21st-century problems.

It’s time for that to change. We need to practice what we preach; we need to upskill ourselves!

DATES: OCTOBER 10 to NOVEMBER 18, 2022

The Learning & Development Conference 2022 is designed to do just that. This conference is different and needed. It is a curated curriculum specifically designed to address the most important needs for learning and development.

Our faculty are established translators of research-to-practice presenting the necessary evidence-based ideas that are critical to delivering the L&D that our organizations want and need.

Spread out over several weeks, this isn’t your typical ‘event’ model.

We want to develop capabilities, with time to revisit core ideas, and work on the practical implications.

The audience is also global, with events scheduled to support attendance wherever and whenever you are. Of course, all live sessions are virtual and recorded for later review.

The pedagogy is also interactive, engaging audiences from discussions to tasks.

All this should be enough to convince you that this event is definitely a ‘must attend’, but there’s more.

On an ongoing basis, we will solicit topics from attendees that need to be addressed, and make sure they are. We believe in being flexible and responsive, and are organized to support that.

The conference is designed to make sure that you leave ready to face the challenges of the 21st-century L&D. Now it’s up to you to take up that mission.

DIFFERENCES FROM PREVIOUS YEARS

  1. Two focused tracks that cross-over: (a) The New L&D Professional; and (b) the Experienced L&D Professional

  2. The asynchronous programs will act as foundations for the live, synchronous sessions.

  3. Smaller, more accessible faculty.

  4. Projects for participants to apply lessons learned in the workflow.

  5. A plethora of resources and tools.

TRACK 1: THE NEW L&D PROFESSIONAL

  1. How do humans learn

  2. How to analyze what is needs for learning

  3. How to design and develop learning

  4. How to facilitate and deliver learning

  5. How to evaluate the design, the delivery, and whether learning occurred.

  6. Managing the logistics of learning.

  7. How learners are motivated and how motivation affects learning (HINT: motivation does not yield learning in of itself).

  8. How to support behavioral modification in learning design.

TRACK 2: THE EXPERIENCED L&D PROFESSIONAL

  1. Managing complex learning interventions

  2. Using data analytics: how? when? why?

  3. Deep-dive on learning evaluation

  4. Managing stakeholder involvement and expectations

  5. Evaluating and digesting learning science research

  6. Developing learning strategies for organizations

  7. The finance of L&D— how L&D professionals should think of finance in our respective field.

  8. Ed Tech— the do’s, don’ts, and musts!

CONFERENCE APPLICATION Projects

For both tracks, attendees will be asked to personalize their own learning and engage in a project applying conference learning to their own work. They will be assigned a mentor to support them throughout the process and receive guidance and feedback as they progress.
