Did you make it to Learning Technologies this year? There were thirteen Totara Partners exhibiting and it was wonderful to see so many of you there talking about the huge impact Totara has made on your organisations. At the event people could pick up a copy of the Community newspaper, if you weren’t there you can still get your copy today! If you missed the event or want to reflect on what happened then have a look at Lars Hyland’s blog post which discusses the two-day event. We’d love to hear your thoughts and takeaways.
Upcoming webinars
We’ve got some great webinars coming up in the next few weeks. We’ll be focusing on design by considering font and how to gamify your training.
Learn how your font choices affect communication – 26th February at 10 AM GMT
Every time we read a piece of text we're being subtly communicated to by the font it is set in. Have you ever struggled when deciding which typeface to use for your training or documents?
Join Totara's Visual Design Lead Matt Stokes for some insight into a little bit of the history and background of typography. Find out how your font choice can help make your communication more effective!
Gamify your training content in Totara Learn – 4th March 15.00 GMT / 9.00 CST
Building gamification into your online and blended learning programs has been shown to improve learner motivation, engagement and performance.
Join Totara's Senior Solutions Consultant, Meredith Henson to learn how to add gamified elements to your Totara Learn courses.
From the forums
How are you handling compliance training?
Compliance training is at the heart of many L&D departments, but there are many different ways that you can implement compliance training in your organisation. Which methods are favourable? And which has the biggest impact? That’s the discussion happening here, join in to share your best-practice ideas.
How do we keep people safe and comfortable in online groups?
When groups of people interact together online, like in the Totara Community, there’s always going to be a question of community standards and safety. Ensuring people feel comfortable and safe to communicate is important for many different types of organisations. In the Community we use a site policy and have a set of community standards. How do you keep your users safe and ensure everyone is happy? This is an interesting question that’s being asked this week specifically about younger users, so if you’re also working this one out feel free to join the discussion.
