The faculty encourage students to attend seminar  not only to learn more about the happenings in the field but to take time to get know others in the program. Seminar is streamed online for our online students. Look for a message next week with the information to join us online.

Seminar Date: Friday 9/9
Time: 12:00 noon-1:00pm
Location: STB 3303
Speaker: Doretta Gordon, PhD
Doretta is an IS @ FSU alum, and she works for Southwest Research Institute where she is the Director of the Emerging Training and Performance Technologies Department. The seminar topic will be Expert Knowledge Transformation. "We depend on the experts in our organizations.  But what happens when they walk out the door, taking all that valuable wisdom with them?  Loss of expert knowledge has crippled organizations, causing them to have to recreate or rebuild their corporate advantage. Expert Knowledge Transformation is a 5-step process to proactively capture the tacit wisdom and turn it into valuable learning content to build up the workforce and extend the corporate ROI."
