Moving presentations online: coronavirus, training sessions, and events

Coronavirus is causing businesses to cut or make drastic reductions in business travel, and to cancel or move conferences and events online. But conference organizers, training teams, and trainers still have jobs to do – so the question immediately becomes How do you do your job when people can’t travel or meet face-to-face?
It’s not a case of just taking your in-person content and presenting it virtually – if you’re to be effective you need to understand how online presentations are different for the presenter, their slides, and their audience. Once you’ve got a handle on that it’s a case of figuring out how you can eliminate distraction for your audience and engage them with compelling content. Join us online to find out how.
We’d love to get the word out there so that businesses can keep going as normal without feeling like they’re putting employees at risk. Sign up and share it with your colleagues.

As a Certified Training and Development Professional (CTDP) with years of experience working with associations, I am currently the Executive Director of the Institute for Performance and Learning or I4PL. Our purpose is to elevate the performance of the Canadian workforce.
Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.
Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
