The Bob Pike Group's 19th Annual Training and Learning Conference

As trainers, we don't follow maps to buried treasure and attaining what we seek is never so easy as finding an X that marks the spot, as Indiana Jones so memorably told his students in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. As a professor, Indy's long lectures were dusty, pedagogical, dry-showstoppers in the most negative sense. Only his rugged good looks kept female students awake.

Yet, the harrowing adventures through history with Indy have us willingly paying millions of dollars to watch him find that hidden treasure.

In the bold spirit of Harrison Ford, our 2012 annual Training and Learning Conference theme is Indiana Bob and the Kingdom of Crystal Clear Training. However, we have more in our educational arsenal than Indy ever had.

Participant-centered training-training where learners are interacting with the material often and not just listening-is one weapon against boredom which opens up a whole new educational adventure for trainer and learner which includes increased material retention and enthusiasm for the material while decreasing stress all around!

Attending this year's conference will reinforce material you may have gleaned in the past from our workshops while providing new information and techniques for creating interactive mlearning, converting classroom material to online formats effectively, integrating audience-response systems into the classroom and more from The Bob Pike Group trainers as well as guest faculty.

If you have never attended a workshop by The Bob Pike Group, come to our conference and experience the adrenaline rush of an amazing alternative to lecture-based training. At this year's conference, we are offering 38 different sessions and four certificate programs in Delivery, Design, Virtual Training and Facilitation. This conference also gives you an intimate opportunity to network with The Bob Pike Group training consultants outside of the classroom, a valuable opportunity no other conference offers.

Join us this fall and hear the Grail knight say, "You have chosen wisely."

1st International seminar on Higher Education Rankings and e-learning

Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (OUC) will host its first international seminar on Higher Education Rankings and e-Learning. To take place in Barcelona, Spain, on 22–23 September 2011, the seminar will feature a range of international speakers, including ICDE President, Frits Pannekoek.

OUC is member of the International Council for Open and Distance Education.

University rankings have been around for at least a couple of decades now, with some sources making a case that they go as far back as the XIV century, implicit in the recognition of the Universities of Prague, Paris and Oxford as the sole of university textbooks of the time. Be that as it may, higher education performance evaluation tools have since proliferated, both at the regional and international level.
No matter what the criticism levied against the various rankings now being produced, it is undeniable that they provide, in one form or another, useful instruments for benchmarking. 
Rankings, nonetheless, have so far not kept abreast of the profound changes in higher education brought about by the opportunities offered by the ICTs, and have not – with counted exceptions – included online education in their studies.
Today most universities have, to varying degrees, adopted the Internet as a delivery mode to complement their traditional teaching.  A few universities, such our own, actually teach exclusively online, and there are staggering growth perspectives in the online student population as internet-based education gains legitimacy and is being identified as a rigorous, viable and economically sustainable alternative to residential universities.
Are rankings likely to focus on eLearning in the near future? If so, what parameters will be employed and who will be defining those? What impact will they have on online education?  If not, are present rankings of any use to online education institutions for benchmarking purposes?
The Universitat Oberta de Catalunya invites members of the university community the world over, policy makers, analysts and publishers to join experts and exchange views as they debate these issues at the 1st International Seminar on Higher Education Rankings and e-learning to be held in Barcelona, Spain on the 22nd  and 23rd of September, 2011.
