Ensuring that all e-Learning is operable is of utmost importance to learners with motor disabilities. Learners with some motor disabilities, as well as blind learners, cannot use a mouse or touch screen. Thus a basic tenet of operable content is ensuring that content is keyboard accessible; if all controls and interactive elements have keyboard equivalents, the content will work with most adaptive devices, including screen readers, mouth sticks, and head wands, which use or replicate keyboard functionality.

L&D professionals often need to overcome what at first seems like an unrealistic task, but some of the most creative ideas come from a lack of time and money. In a recent article in The Training Journal, Rokas Buciunas, the People & Performance Coordinator at Restless Development, shared some examples. His organization launched e-Learning from the Charity Learning Consortium to 400 staff across 10 countries and multiple regional offices — with no training budget, or a full-time L&D professional in place.

Over the past few decades the world of corporate training has radically changed. In the 1920s and 1930s, we put training in the managers' hands. This meant managers had to roll up their sleeves, show people how to do their jobs, and give them ongoing support. During World War II, the need to recruit millions of people into the U.S. Army led to the growth of skills testing, competency evaluation, and later formal instructional design. In 1954 B.F. Skinner wrote some of the first books on training, promoting the idea of small learning steps, questions and answers, and the ADDIE model to build high-fidelity training programs.

For those of us in the training and development industry, the quest to measure the results of training is almost as complex and even unattainable as the quest for the holy grail. Why? Because showing the return on investment from training involves many components and metrics that are not readily measurable, such as the behavioral changes in the learner's day-to-day work as a result of the training they attended.

here's something to be said about matching the right employee with the right mentor. For the most part, this happens within companies, but it can also happen when an employee actively seeks out a mentor in his or her industry from another organization. What is suggested here, however, is that companies support cross-company mentoring so that they can gain the maximum benefit. Mentors can be a valuable source of industry knowledge and support, enabling employees to move up the ladder faster and with a solid foundation under them.

The Sub-Committee on Education, Skills and the Economy said youngsters from disadvantaged backgrounds were the worst affected by the "lack of action to address failings in careers provision." It called on Ministers to "urgently" adopt the recommendations in a July report, which found schools were leaving young people without a clear idea of options, thereby exacerbating the skills gap.

As a trainer, you will find that no two delegates are the same. You have two people sitting in on the same training session, where one person is captivated by what you have to say, while the other quickly switches off and becomes bored.

Imagine eating in a restaurant where the chef never tastes the food. Risky, right? We all want our cooks to adjust, tweak and improve the cooking experience by tasting periodically. Every cooking show has the cook take taste checks throughout. And, when I had Bobby Flay as a keynote speaker at my conference, he shared that the recipe was just a guideline; he had to taste the sauce to confirm the result was excellent.
