Communication is key 🔑 Especially when it comes to learning. The way you communicate the value of your training has a big impact on its success, but cutting through the noise can be challenging. Join bestselling author and Learning Strategy Consultant Julie Dirksen and our Learning Innovator Roy de Vries at the Love to Learn Experience on October 21. During this session, you’ll learn how to effectively communicate your value and motivate your learners by addressing the crucial question: “What’s in it for them?” The experience kicks off with a free, interactive online session from 11:00 am to 12:00 pm (CEST), where you’ll gain practical insights to engage your audience right from the start. In the afternoon, there’s an exclusive, hands-on masterclass in Rotterdam from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm (CEST), limited to just 20 participants (€299). This masterclass is designed for those who want to directly implement the concepts discussed in the online session.

In just two days I'll be joining an amazing line-up of speakers at the Business of Training Conference, organised by Inmisceo. 🚀 I'll be sharing my thoughts on how you can design impactful learning experiences that really help people learn. There's a lot of buzz around AI, how it can help us as designers and learners, but it can also make it easy to forget what we're trying to achieve. Making sure the basics are in order, to really help people learn, is an important perspective in this discussion. Just one more day to buy your ticket, so I hope to see you there! 🙌

What happens when 40+ aNewSpring colleagues visit Skopje, North Macedonia to meet their Macedonian teammates? 🇲🇰 A whole lot of fun, laughter, conversations, team building, sightseeing, and adventure! ❤️️ We had an incredible weekend with our Macedonian colleagues in Skopje, where they gave us a warm welcome, showed us around their city, and introduced us to their local culture. 👉Day 1: After arriving in the evening, we dove straight into dinner at Pelister, a nice restaurant where we had some delicious traditional Macedonian dishes. Later, a few of us wandered off to Saloon, a Western-style bar that was buzzing with energy. 👉Day 2: The morning kicked off early with a trip to the Matka Canyon, a top outdoor destination in North Macedonia, known for its stunning scenery and medieval monasteries. Some colleagues embraced their adventurous side by kayaking through the canyon, while others went for a more relaxed boat tour that included a visit to a cave. After exploring the canyon, we made our way to the aNewSpring office in Skopje. For some, it was their first visit, while for others, it was a welcome return to familiar grounds. Afterward, the group split up, some exploring the city on a tour, and others enjoying some free time. That evening, we wrapped up the day with an amazing dinner at Restaurant Four before heading to an old café where we had some nice drinks as well. The perfect end to a memorable day! This weekend was all about connecting, and it was special to bond with our Macedonian colleagues. Enjoy the pictures!

We just wrapped up another webinar with great insight for training providers, here are my key takeaways for creating training that truly sticks! 👉 Empower learners; by finding ambassadors and involving them in the training process, using real-life cases for a hands-on approach. 👉 Use technology; to design efficient, personalized learning experiences that resonate with your audience. 👉 Be willing to cut content; that doesn't directly serve your learners' goals, even if you're attached to it. "Kill you darlings" as Nicoline Huizinga mentioned. 👉 Make evaluation and feedback a cornerstone of your training; leverage technology and personal feedback to gather insights and continuously improve your courses. A big thank you to Arja van der Valk and Nicoline Huizinga from Sales Academy and all the enthousiastic attendees. Loved the questions and desire to improve! What topic should we cover next in Better Training Today Live, let us know in the comments. #helppeoplelearn #blendedlearning #learning

"𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭'𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐢𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦?" 🤔 A phrase I preach often when I am working on learning journeys with customers. Trying to make them focus on relevant content and applicable exercises, to create better learning outcomes. But learning starts even before they enter a course. It starts when they first read or hear about a training. When they learn about the context of the training and what a training can solve for them. I'm happy that we can collaborate with Julie Dirksen once again, to tackle the challenge on communicating value with our learners. 💥 Join us on October 21st for 𝘢𝘯 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯 (11:00 am - 12:00 pm CEST) to learn more about this topic. Next to that, you can join us for the 𝘪𝘯-𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯, 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘔𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘤𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘴 (13:00 pm - 17:00 pm CEST) in Rotterdam. We only have 20 spots available, so don't hesitate to sign up! 💌 Want to know more?

Puck and myself had a great inspiration session for GGZ Ecademy Coöperatie U.A last week. We discussed four important topics: learning objectives, adaptive learning, interactivity and transfer. During the break-outs, participants chose a topic to deep dive on. I'm not exaggerating when I say that 95% chose for the topic of 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐟𝐞𝐫. This confirmed my thinking: it's a topic people want and need to know more about. 💡 Learning isn't just something a 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯𝘦𝘳 does themselves. It needs support from their ecosystem; their manager, their colleagues, the organisation, maybe even the home front! 🔄 One of the things that I think can really be a game-changer, is something Fergal Connolly taught me a while back: think about your communication about the training and create a script for managers, to guide the learners to transfer in the workplace. What do you do to enhance transfer in your training? Let's create a 𝘣𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘴 𝘨𝘶𝘪𝘥𝘦 in the comment section! ⬇

Wilde Ganzen x aNewSpring: Shortlisted for the 2024 Learning Technologies Exhibition & Conference Awards! 🙌🎉 Exciting news! We've been shortlisted in the category "Best Learning Technologies Project - Public & Non-Profit Sector". Through the ‘Change the Game Academy’ learning journey programme, organisations in low- and middle-income countries are trained to raise funds and claim their rights in their own countries. Increased independence of foreign funding makes changemakers independent and powerful; whether they lead a school or run a LHBTIQ+ campaign: having your own funding ensures you can think ahead, make smart choices and truly support your beneficiaries in their needs. They are dedicated to empower those changemakers who strive to move forward. The focus is on equipping them with the knowledge to engage their communities on social issues, foster dialogue with governments, and diversify their funding base. And, they even won the 2024 Training Improvement Award for their success! Next up: a presentation together with Wilde Ganzen, sharing their story and how our learning journey platform played a key role in their success. Stay tuned for more updates! 👀 More great news: our partner New Leaf Technologies, along with their customer Wellness Warehouse, has also been shortlisted for the awards. Big congratulations to them! #LT24Awards #Awards #LearningandDevelopment #IHELPEOPLEARN
