It has been about seven months since I last blogged here or even read any blogs. Too much work at the office and too little energy at home.
However, I participated in an energizing online training today done by Kassie La Borie and Jane Bozarth and followed up with a visit to Jane's blog. In her most recent post she lamented the end of Training magazine. I could relate to her comments because I too, read Training cover to cover as I was transitioning from elementary school teacher to library staff trainer.
I no longer have to look up buzzwords like ROI but they keep inventing new ones like"webinar" BTW-Kassie and Jane both hate that term! I don't mind as I think it is easier than "Interactive synchronous online training."
I still am primarily a live classroom trainer but wish we had the budget for the tools like Articulate and WebEx. By the time I figure it all out I will be ready to retire.

It's sad when standard tools sunset. But part of keeping current is developing new tools. There probably is some online blog or journal that picks up where Training left off - just a question of finding it. Think a quick tweet would yield a list?
