Categorizing the L&D Industry Using Ontologies with Adam Weisblatt

#IDIODC Instructional Designers In Offices Drinking Coffee

The world of work has changed. Our industry has been changing for many years, but 2020 has placed the spotlight directly on corporate training. Not only did the entire planet move their lives online, but businesses are now being required to report data on Human Capital Management efforts. It's the perfect time for us to talk about the reality of our expanding role within organizations we serve.
In the past we simply built instructional materials for classroom lessons to be taught by trainers/teachers. Today, we produce online learning that is synchronous and asynchronous, job aides, videos, live streams, knowledge bases, infographics, learning ecosystems and so much more. Some of our colleagues are even being asked to "create a learning culture" within their organizations. Is that even possible?
In this episode of IDIODC Adam Weisblatt joins us to talk about how we can begin to create this new ontology in a way that is easy to understand. What we do and how we do it has changed significantly. It's time to redraw that reality so we're all working from the same page.
