Facilitating Adult Learning in a Virtual Environment

We live in a world that is profoundly shaped by the digital environment. Moreover, with the evolution of society and technology, people expect to access content in virtual spaces. We have now reached a point in history when it’s a necessity to become proficient at creating and delivering compelling digital content and facilitate learning in virtual spaces—although most feel unprepared to do so.

This practical, evidence-based workshop provides a foundation on how to educate and engage adults with digital opportunities. Utilizing an energetic, participatory format, this workshop will help attendees understand what motivates adults to learn, how to excel as a presenter and facilitator of learning, and best practices for creating and delivering dynamic content.

Learning Objectives:

  • Gain familiarity with the pillars of adult learning, including how to engage audiences through effective facilitation exercises.
  • Understand the skills and talents needed to be an engaging presenter and effective facilitator, including practical tips on how present your “best self” online.
