Social learning happens every day, but it’s not always by design. How do we harness the richness of social learning to guide learners’ growth and performance? This webinar delves into how Sublime Media and Microsoft crafted a facilitator-free L&D cohort program that prioritizes community over traditional learning objectives. David Linder, founder and creative director of Sublime Media, and Jason Gray, senior learning development consultant for Microsoft, will reveal how they designed meaningful social learning opportunities for Microsoft’s Aspire Pi program.

In this webinar, you will learn to:

  • Balance free-form learning with the expertise learners need to succeed.
  • Increase engagement through social learning opportunities.
  • Build meaningful relationships that improve satisfaction and retention in a hybrid workplace.

Remember learning algebra? I remember sitting confused as Mrs. Owens wrote, 5000x+15=4.5. Solve X, she said, as I thought, “I’m never figuring out X.” She noticed my confusion and helped me out. One day something stuck. I GOT IT! Fast forward, and I now work at Microsoft where challenges like this math problem are everywhere. My job is to make solving X for our early-in-career hires easier. I grow the 5,000 recent university hires to achieve 4.5 trillion market cap. And X? I’m an X factor in that success.
