The Interactive Techniques
for Improved Learning
Conference

March 23-25, 2021

BACKGROUND

For the last 10 years, we have delivered conferences across Europe. As a direct result of COVID, we are unable to physically fly to Brussels, Paris, Winterthur, or any of the other places we have delighted in visiting. But, we are thrilled to partner with our friends at The Learning Gym to co-organize this new conference. Facilitated by several of our European friends we bring you a live, online program: The Interactive Techniques for Improved Learning Conference (ITIL).

Delivered by a host of experts from Switzerland, Belgium, Germany, India, France, and the US, ITIL offers several sessions on many training topics within the realms of design, delivery, and evaluation. We have also added in several networking and social events, lunch & learns, and more.

OVERVIEW

Interactive techniques refers to the use of activities when delivering training. Activities may include simulations, jolts (see an entire conference session on Jolts), interactive lectures, structured sharing, games, and many more.

So, ITIL will equip you with strategies to make your training/teaching interventions more interactive, engaging, and effective. Each session is 75 minutes long and brings you tested and relevant elements. This conference is dedicated to the design of activities, their delivery, and the overall evaluation of your training package. Our hope is you will leave the conference with an improved toolkit containing interactive approaches you can leverage immediately in your own trainings, strategies for better instructional design, and templates and best practices for evaluating your work before, during, and after your programs.
