Social features with Totara Learn - 27th May at 4PM (BST)/ 10AM (CST)

Learning doesn’t always happen in isolation. In fact, learning is often social; whether acquiring new knowledge through interaction with peers and experts or reflecting on what you’ve learnt through discussion. Learning takes place through participation and interaction, through sharing with others.

In this webinar, Meredith will walk-through the various social tools available to help build an engaged online community of learners.
