Tiina Paju-Pomfret
- Speaking at the "Learning, Knowledge & TECHNOLOGY" morning seminar on day 2
Tiina’s Business Technology Training team at Bupa provides IT training solutions for the Bupa Group, offering desktop and business critical applications training, using a range of learning technologies. She also collaborates with Bupa’s global L&D forum on best practice in blended learning strategies.
The Bupa session looks at how Bupa is using social media in a learning context.
With a myriad of learning technologies now available within organisations e.g. LMS, LCMS, eLearning authoring tools, document management systems etc., is there really room for another one? What are the benefits of using social media for the organisation? How can the learning and development teams and more importantly, the learner benefit?
Bupa is a global organisation that aims to connect staff from all over the world by providing opportunities to learn and collaborate with each other. They have invested in learning technologies that allow Bupa staff to access training from wherever they are and whenever they need it. Social media is adding a further dimension to both formal and informal learning.
