    We are looking at the possibility of developing an in-house online security awareness training program for our employees. We currently contract out with a hosted solution, however, it is pricey. I was looking around on the web, found very few online training programs that were short. I think one I found was like a 10-hour course, and too long for…[Read more]

    Updated link:
    Many agencies struggle with providing MS Office training for their employees. Microsoft has many training options for multiple versions of Office freely available. Link

    I love Articulate. However, if you are concerned with the compliance of Flash for Section 508, you might consider using SoftChalk. Softchalk just came out with some mobile activities.

    We also use Moodle platform for LMS. Haven’t done much social media integration other than just adding the feeds into a block in the Moodle. One issue we have…[Read more]

    Is there a box to check to give a poster the option of having their post show up on the GovLoop homepage or not? Maybe also a box to check if they want it Tweeted. Might be good to give a choice of where you wanted your post posted. Just a thought.
