Nearly three years into a major shift to a virtual delivery model for learning programs, we’ve embraced virtual environments like Zoom and Teams. But both L&D leaders and learners have recognized the limitations of those platforms, particularly around creating a learning environment that not only feels like an in-person classroom, but also offers the flexibility and networking options of one. Enter the metaverse.
On January 19, 2023, our panel of learning and development experts discussed how metaversal platforms are uniquely suited to transform virtual deliveries of learning programs.
Watch the video below to join Luke Owings (VP Product, Abilitie) and Karl Kapp (Professor of Instructional Technology and Director of the Institute for Interactive Technologies at Bloomsburg University) as they explore the unique advantage the metaverse offers for learning, how it is better suited to keep participants engaged through more meaningful conversation and interaction, and how it leverages the most beneficial parts of in-person learning.

This event was presented through a partnership between Chief Learning Officer and Abilitie.
