Skilljar Connect 2018

In this episode of CELab, Adam shares his experiences from Skilljar Connect, hosted in Seattle on November 14 and 15, 2018. Adam shares his experiences in talking on a panel hosted by Maria Manning Chapman from TSIA focused on Content effectiveness and how to make training stick!  Join us for this recap and tons of myths and misconceptions about content!

This week on CELab, we recap another Customer Education conference: Skilljar Connect! Adam attended and spoke on a panel at the conference, and it was a great day spent with other Customer Educators.

Let’s face it: Aside from CEdMA (which we recapped on a previous episode) here aren’t many conferences devoted to customer education. While big conferences like DevLearn and ATD TechKnowledge are helpful for instructional designers and technologists, they aren’t often customer education oriented. I’d highly recommend them to anyone looking to learn more about instructional design, content development, and learning technology. But as a customer education professional, you often must make the leap away from the context of traditional L&D, asking yourself, “How does this apply to customer education?”

So similar to how Gainsight Pulse is focused on the discipline of Customer Success, Skilljar Connect was a forum for Skilljar customers to discuss the discipline of Customer Education and share our programs.
