It’s another week in lockdown for most of us, so we hope you’re all faring well at the moment. At this time, we know the importance of Community and the significance of working together. This week Larry Mitipelo from New Zealand’s Ministry of Justice has been sharing the New Zealand Government’s story of moving their learning online and discusses the benefits of working towards common goals in an online community. Keep up the good work Larry! If your organisation is feeling the benefits of using the Community, please feel free to share your good news stories with us.
If you’re looking to share resources and work with your peers, remember you can always speak to fellow learning professionals in the forums, or join one of our dedicated sector spaces for more targeted conversations about the challenges facing your industry:
Also, for organizations who may be turning to remote work for the first time, help is at hand in the form of remote working resources from GO1 and Core Learning.
