"Social learning" and "informal learning" are among the training industry's hottest phrases these days. But there's so much confusion over what they mean and what they mean to those of us in the business. In this session, participants will review the basics of social learning, including theory-based perspectives. These basics include items such as: Social learning isn't new; Social learning isn't necessarily "managed," "launched," "controlled" or "measured". People in the workplace are learning all the time . without us; Those people likely don't think of what they're doing as "learning."

During this webinar, you'll see real examples of social and informal learning as it happens in workplaces -- all the time, every day.

During this session, you will learn:

• The differences between social learning, informal learning and social media for learning
• The ways learning occurs naturally in day-to-day work
• Tactics for supporting and nurturing social learning and communities
• Strategies for embedding learning into the workflow rather than interrupting it
