As a learning professional, you're always busy. You have eLearning projects to manage, deadlines and expectations to meet, and tight budgets. Sometimes it feels like the odds are against you. You work hard to ensure that your organization gets proper training.

But two questions arise:

• How do you get help to deal with your day-to-day challenges?
• What about your professional development?

Many conferences and workshop address one of these needs but not the other. And some address neither! Research techniques like web searches are inherently inefficient and often lead to vendors that want to box your challenges into their solution.

We have designed the eLearn Campus Peer Network to make your job easier by providing answers to your day-to-day challenges. But we also develop your professional capability to deal with tomorrow's challenges.

What is the eLearn Campus Peer Network?

The eLearn Campus Peer Network is a limited membership, exclusive group of learning professionals from across North America that combines the best of professional development and practical assistance for eLearning. It is a unique opportunity to learn, collaborate, share, and interact with peers and eLearn Campus experts. It will showcase best practices in eLearning and teach you practical "how to's" that you can use today.

Listen to Mike What are the top reasons learning professionals would want to join the Peer Network?

What Do You Get as a Member of the eLearn Campus Peer Network?

You will have access to a non-stop flow of learning resources. Members will drive the agenda for all live online and in-person events. The Peer Network includes the following elements:

• Monthly Best Practice Online Workshops will allow for interaction amongst your peers that are facing similar challenges and issues.  During these online events, members will be able to showcase their approaches and see other examples of eLearning best practices. You'll be able to engage with experienced experts like Rick Nigol and Michael Grant, who combined have 40 years experience in education, training and evaluation.

• A member-only Online Community of Practice, which will provide you with an area for intriguing discussions.  You may post your questions, comments, hotlinks, and ideas to share with your peers. This will enable you to sustain your learning pre and post events, and to expand on the topics discussed. This Online Community of Practice will be facilitated by Rick Nigol and Michael Grant and will provide just-in-time support and coaching.

• A Monthly Newsletter, exclusively for Peer Network members that will contain further insights from Rick and Michael and summarize the key value points from the events and online discussions. You will find this newsletter to be a great refresher, and offline reference tool.

• A 2-Day, In-Person Best Practice Workshop that will provide you with a high-touch opportunity to meet face-to-face with other Peer Network members and eLearn Campus. As a group, we'll roll-up our sleeves and listen to one another's challenges and issues and come up with suggestions and solutions.

• Access to our online Certificate in eLearning Management 3 core courses that close the gap between the knowledge of best practices and the competencies that are required to implement those best practices. Your organization will have complete access at no additional charge to the three core courses of eLearn Campus' Certificate in eLearning Management (a retail value of $1,485 US / $1,740 CDN and recognized at the University level). These core courses include:
  • Making the Right Choices for Your eLearning: Setting the Vision
  • Engaging Your eLearners: Best Practices in eLearning Design and Facilitation
  • Maximizing the Value of Your eLearning: Creating a Solid Management and Evaluation Plan

  You can merely access the course content or you and your team members can complete the specific competency tests and pursue full certification.

Listen to Mike How would a member take advantage of all the elements in the Peer Network?

"We have been doing eLearning for many years, so we understand the practical challenges. I want the members of the Peer Network to leverage our expertise and experience. I will be continually engaged with members in all aspects of the Network. I really want this to be something that helps people with their practical issues, not some pie-in-the-sky talking shop!"

"We speak to a lot of people about their eLearning challenges. From a developmental point of view, I think the number one challenge is that people lack a strategic perspective as to why they even want to do eLearning. They usually get involved in all types of technical details without even knowing why they are doing it. My contribution to the network will be to bring a disciplined strategic focus to all our discussions"

Who Should Join the eLearn Campus Peer Network?

We invite you to join a select group of organizations from across North America and eLearn Campus experts if you:

• Are serious about eLearning and believe eLearning can make a difference to your organization
• Are focused on performance
• Want to save time and money, "get it right the first time", and minimize your risk
• Want to understand how new learning technology fits with your needs Like interacting and learning from others
• Want a steady flow of new ideas that will keep you excited and motivated

The eLearn Campus Peer Network accepts organizations at all stages of development. The important thing is not the stage of development, but a commitment to getting things right.

Why be Part of the eLearn Campus Peer Network?

If you've been to our webinars, you'll know that we pack a lot into 45-minutes and attendees tell us that they get some good ideas. However, there is not enough time for us to dig deeper into the many issues our audience face. We can only show a few examples of good eLearning and practical "how-to's". The agenda is driven by what we think people need to know, not what they have told us they want to know.

However, in the eLearn Campus Peer Network, you, the members, drive the agenda. So that means an on-going series of live online and in-person events that are always relevant to you. You can rely on Rick and Michael to provide support and coaching with any challenges that arise during the course of your annual membership. You will also leverage the knowledge, experience, and insight from your peers.

The Peer Network is a "No Vendor Zone", so you won't be vulnerable to sales pitches. Unlike other organizations, we don't sell our membership list to vendors or have advertisers. Our focus is on our members needs, not selling our members to people who might not care about their needs.
