Transform your live online training sessions with these core design principles that drive real results

Transform your live online training sessions with these core design principles that drive real results. This interactive webinar dives into what learners actually want from synchronous sessions, and how to design experiences that deliver. You’ll discover evidence-based approaches to structure your sessions with maximum impact – from nailing those first 5 minutes, to understanding how session duration affects learning outcomes. Ever wonder why participants aren’t asking questions?

We tackle the silence puzzle head-on with practical solutions drawn from extensive trials and learner feedback. Trainers who have mastered these fundamentals are creating and delivering online sessions that learners genuinely value and remember.
