Hey Buzzkills!   This week's episode is PACKED with all the action and info you need! We're celebrating Abortion Provider Appreciation Week, and AAF is out on the road doing the important work of showing our support for the heroes who keep abortion care alive. Dr. Ashley Jeanius, OB-GYN and abortion provider, joins us to talk about how she feels celebrated during this special week and how YOU can show love and support for the providers in your life. But that's not all! We dive into the latest battlefronts, starting with the Wisconsin State Supreme Court race—where billionaires are throwing money to protect the anti-abortion agenda. We break down the stakes and why it matters. Then, we move to Kansas, where a potential ballot initiative could radically change the state's Supreme Court appointments, opening the floodgates for dark money to flood the system. We can't let that happen! PLUS, we dodge a bullet when David Weldon's CDC Director nomination gets pulled—because we weren't about to let that disaster unfold. It's packed with rage, real talk, and the kind of info you can't afford to miss.  Scared? Got Questions about the continued assault on your reproductive rights? THE FBK LINES ARE OPEN!

What to listen for:Today in K9 Detection Collaborative, our hosts Robin Greubel, Stacy Barnett, and Crystal Wing discuss the keys to successful virtual training.“Virtual coaching is student-driven. Anything propelled by student drive, drives results.”Making the switch from in-person to online coaching can be a tough sell for many. But as our hosts explain, there can be many limitations to your growth as a handler when you confine yourself to local training sessions.“When you're stuck in your local area, your access to truly top instructors is limited.”That said, virtual learning isn't without its hurdles, especially for those who feel self-conscious on camera or yearn for hands-on instruction. But, as the Dames of Detection remind us, that's mostly a matter of time–you will get used to communicating on camera the more you do it!At the end of the day, the pros far outweigh the cons. Among other things, you get access to the best of the best, and can even receive personalized training plans from them. Online training truly opens new doors, allowing us to juggle busy schedules, balance personal commitments, and continue our passion for K9 education, even while on the road!Key Topics:The Benefits of Virtual Coaching (03:19)What if You Prefer In-Person Training?

How much do you invest in training your employees, and how much should you allocate? According to the Association for Talent Development's 2023 State of the Industry report, organizations spent an average of $1,220 per employee on training, which is slightly less than the previous year.   Some employees view training primarily as a reward and assess it based on their satisfaction rather than its impact on their performance or work output. Similarly, some managers treat training as a supplement or substitute for performance feedback and do not adequately evaluate its outcomes.   In 2023, companies spent an average of $954 per learner on training, which includes methodologies like virtual reality (VR) and other technologies. The amount spent on training varies by company size; typically, small companies invest more while large companies spend less.   Great leaders are not born; they are continuously evolving. They consistently work on improving themselves, their organizations, and their leadership skills.   Damon Lembi, a two-time bestselling author, host of The Learn-It-All Podcast, and CEO of Learnit—a live learning platform that has upskilled over 2 million individuals—brings an athlete's perspective to leadership drawn from his background in baseball. Through his experiences, Damon has gained valuable insights into fostering organizational growth, effective leadership development, and the reasons learn-it-all companies consistently outshine their competitors. His experiences in baseball inform his informal mentoring of executives. He has consolidated these hard-earned insights into his bestselling book, "The Learn-It-All Leader: Mindset, Traits, and Tools," along with keynote speeches on leadership, entrepreneurship, and lifelong learning.   When he's not working, Damon enjoys making memories with his family, reading, attending live music events, watching movies and baseball games, and walking in Sausalito with his companion, Pablo the Puggle.   For more information: https://www.learnit.com/  Check out the Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-learn-it-all-podcast/id1714645917  LinkedIn: @DamonLembi 

This week on "Off the Cuff," Jill and Sarah recap last week's Federal Student Aid (FSA) Virtual Training Conference and detail what could happen with Biden administration regulations under the incoming Trump administration.

Jill then outlines possible paths the Trump administration may take with Biden-era regulations, including gainful employment (GE) and financial value transparency (FVT), student debt relief, Return of Title IV Funds (R2T4), distance education, TRIO programs, and more.

Ken (@cktricky) returns alongside Seth (@sethlaw) for the week. This starts with an in-depth discussion on the pros and cons of in-person and virtual trainings. In short, the duo prefers in-person due for the advantages, but understand that financial pressures come into play, so virtual is a good substitute. This is followed by thoughts on the recent lawsuit by thy government against Georgia Tech for failing to meet government cybersecurity compliance requirements, even after attesting to their existence. Third-party risk assessments may not be the most fun part of security, but what happens when an organization doesn't meet their obligations? Seems like both sides are in the "find out" phase of FAFO.

Can you educate healthcare students on delivering life-and-death news to patients, and if so, can you standardize it and evaluate student improvement and performance? Can virtual simulation truly bring the realism necessary to deliver this serious news? Join us for this month's Education Journal Club as we unpack the details of this multi-institutional effort, exploring how virtual simulation is being leveraged to create a scalable, competency-based curriculum.

Please tune in to this episode of The Building BITE Podcast, as we hear from industry experts about key topics to help you be successful. The Building BITE host Mike Diercksen, CRIS, welcomes Nick Demonte, Cement Mason Coordinator, and Tim Nelson, Plastering Coordinator at ITF OPCMIA. We begin the episode by discussing Nick and Tim's professional career, which eventually lead them both to an educational role. Nick and Tim share the new technology they are bringing to the industry and demonstrate the need to incorporate these new strategies due to the labor workforce continuing to shrink. Nick and Tim leave provide excellent insight into the labor force at large, and ultimately leave us with three key takeaways. 1. Recruit: As an industry, we are losing more workers than we are bringing on and we need to find ways to recruit diverse talent. Using tools such as the VR Simulator is just one way that we are looking to engage with both our existing prospect pools and to expand into new groups that may not have otherwise looked at the trades. 2. Train: It is not enough to simply get more people to join the labor work force, but we need to train these new workers to be able to hit the ground running and shorten their learning curve. Using these technologies enables the industry to do exactly that, while offering opportunities to existing laborers to renew certifications and enhance their own experience. 3. Retain: As it stands, industry data shows that in the coming years we will be losing four workers for every one that enters the labor workforce. Investing in technology and demonstrating to new workers the career opportunities available to them will be instrumental to retention rates and the long-term success of our industry.

April 9: Today on TownHall Jake Lancaster, Chief Medical Information Officer at Baptist Memorial Health Care talks with Liz Griffith, Director of EHR Education at uPerform. In their conversation they delve into the intertwined issues of burnout and turnover in the healthcare sector, a phenomenon Liz Griffith dubs as "burnover." Liz, with her extensive background in healthcare technology and EHR satisfaction research, sheds light on how the pandemic has drastically altered the landscape of training within healthcare systems. But how exactly do EHR systems contribute to this burnover? And more importantly, what innovative solutions can mitigate these challenges? How can healthcare systems better align their priorities with the needs of frontline workers to combat burnover effectively?Subscribe: This Week HealthTwitter: This Week HealthLinkedIn: Week HealthDonate: Alex's Lemonade Stand: Foundation for Childhood Cancer

The last few weeks I've been traveling around delivering a series of in-person training sessions all over the world. And I noticed that when I'm delivering this training in major urban areas like Washington DC, Chicago, New York, and the like, inevitably, my client will turn on a Teams meeting or Zoom meeting as I'm setting up. In many of these cities, coming into the office is still somewhat optional. These poor meeting organizers are trying to include virtual team members in their training sessions as well.So, this week, I want to go back and review a few tips we came up with during the pandemic that help make instructor-led virtual training sessions more interactive and meaningful. Then, next week, I'll show you how to best organize a hybrid meeting where some people are in-person and some are virtual.Virtual, instructor-led training is here to stay. In the past few months, many instructors and trainers have had to adapt to a virtual world. Trainers who embrace virtual platforms and adapt the best have an advantage over those who don't. So, I thought it might be a good idea to cover a few Virtual Instructor-Led training best practices. So in this session, I'm going to cover a few tools and tips for virtual instructor-led training. In addition, I'll start with exactly what virtual instructor-led” training is and how it is different from other types of training.Virtual Instructor-Led Training Tools and Tips.In this episode, we cover a few tips and best practices for your virtual training sessions. The closer you stick to these guidelines, the better your training sessions will be.Just as an FYI, though… These are tools and tips for virtual training sessions. If you are organizing a virtual staff meeting or just need to “get your team on the same page,” you only need one tip. Keep the virtual meeting short. Virtual staff meetings should take 15 minutes to 30 minutes — tops. The moment you cross that 30-minute mark, retention, and morale both go down exponentially.With that being said, if you are teaching or training a group over Zoom or Teams, these tips can help you increase retention and morale.Show Notes: Best Practices and Tips for Virtual Instructor-Led Training

We've all heard of Sales Enablement roles. But why is it that only sales teams get special attention enabling them to do their jobs better? Shouldn't we be enabling the entire organization?One might argue that traditional onboarding and training has that responsibility. But it's not quite the same. Enabling all departments to be successful and productive requires more than what traditional training departments provide. Supporting the moments of need within all departments requires knowledge management, informal learning, social learning, access management, and more.Mike Simmons joins us to talk about organization enablement and how L&D is uniquely positioned to blend the best of Knowledge Management, Performance Improvement, and Learning & Development into a cohesive solution that enables all employees to be their best and provide the most value to their organizations.Become virtual friends with the IDIODC gang on Twitter.

Have you asked yourself lately why you don't put a stronger focus on accessibility when creating eLearning content? Oh c'mon, you know you've made excuses why you "can't" do it. We all have at one time or another in our careers. I include myself in that. Here are just a few I'm sure you've used:"Yea, but nobody in our organization has a disability.""Yea, but nobody with a disability could do these particular jobs anyways.""Yea, but it costs more, and we don't have the time to spare.""Yea, but we're not a government agency so we don't really need to worry about it.""Yea, but we make a pdf transcript.

Just because you have the skills to shoot and edit a video doesn't mean it's instructionally sound. This is why some videos are easier to learn from than others. And why that learning sticks. Watching video is a passive experience and therefore you might think there isn't much more to it than just making it more entertaining. Yea, you'd be wrong.Dr. Patti Shank joins us to discuss some of the mental processing models you can use to your advantage when producing videos. She's taught us all how to become better multiple-choice question writers with a scientific approach, and now she's applying that same researched-based rigor to producing better training videos. She reads ALL the research so we don't have too.Join us for another IDIODC with Patti as she continues to help the L&D community apply the research to all that we do.

AI is the hottest topic in L&D since Learning2.0. It's even hotter than Virtual Reality. Why? Because it's something everyone can use and doesn't require additional hardware expenses.  And more importantly, when used creatively, AI apps can supercharge your individual productivity. But if you're a manager/director of an L&D or Training department, you need to build your knowledge of these tools as well. They are changing how your team will work and support stakeholders.Myra Roldan, AWS Sr. Technical Program Manager, joins us to talk about the many solutions and productivity hacks she's discovered while experimenting with AI apps. She'll talk about building AI generated content, but also how she's generated more complex solutions like knowledge bases. She's even used AI to generate her own app that generates instructional objectives. The future of AI is here now.If you follow Myra on social media you may have already seen these demos, but if you're like me, her videos sparked even more questions.

Austin and Justin unpack how FlexIt's technology and infrastructure allows them to connect customers with the best trainers and fitness coaches from around the country creating a system of accountability and consistency for your workout routine. They explain how FlexIt was born out of the pandemic due to the need for remote trainers and workouts. However the evolution of FlexIt did not stop with remote training sessions, they are continuing to evolve into an ecosystem of customizable telehealth, weight loss consultation, nutrition coaches, and holistic health providers.  As the world continues to become more interconnected through technology and digital circles, Austin and Justin believe that improving your health and fitness through FlexIt's platform will prove to be more convenient, more affordable, and more personal than conventional gym memberships and fitness classes.
