Previously, PI teaching was all about the tools. Now you must increase employee engagement, drive culture change, and intensify soft-skill building. Good blended learning is a great solution. Blended learning, done well, is better learning. Blended training, featuring interactive multimedia, is more efficient, less disruptive, and costs less overall than all in-class learning. 7. 2014 The Quality Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
