L&D Conference

All conferences have turned on line since pandemic hit backed in late 2019.

It’s really excited to stand on the ground and attended a live conference, and met peoples in persons again.

This L&DERSHIP conference organised by HR Magazine is focusing on L&D. Not many new insights, but what others shared did inspired me to design our programs better.

This is the best part of the conference, lots of energy in the panel discussion

Learning Project 2 : Turn Down the Heat – Why a 4°C Warmer World Must be Avoided

I just enrolled into this online 4 weeks learning course on

Course will start on 27/1/2014 (Monday) and I was expected to do some 3-5 hours of work / week. Course admission is free. And I am excited to venture into a new learning experience 🙂

Here is the Course Introduction https://www.coursera.org/course/warmerworld :

It is now clear that without action on climate change, the world may become 4°C warmer by the end of this century. Such an increase would threaten to roll back decades of development progress; thus, we are at a ‘make it or break it’ point in time. This course presents the most recent scientific evidence, as well as some of the opportunities for urgent action

Learning Project 1 : The Age of Sustainable Development

I have a learning plan to enroll into an environmental course(s) this year. My original plan is to attend 1-2 Environmental Laws course in UM. Just before I find ways to enroll myself as part-time student, I come across this Coursera course that teach by Prof Jeffery Sachs from Columbia University. This is a 14 weeks free online course that required 5-7 hours of work / week.

I do consider the time and work demands before I enrollment (because I had enrolled 2 other 4 and 9 weeks course that required 8-12 hours of work per week). These 3 environmental course will occupy up to 13-19 hours of work per week, i.e almost 2 full days per week of my time. After much consideration, I decided to embark on this new learning ventures and get myself ready for full time study later of the year.

A quick look on first week lectures’ course works, I know I need to be discipline to watch all the videos, read all the notes on time, otherwise, I will floop.

The Age of Sustainable Development

“The Age of Sustainable Development” gives students an understanding of the key challenges and pathways to sustainable development – that is, economic development that is also socially inclusive and environmentally sustainable.
