The Professional Development team is happy to announce that the updated FY14 Calendar is posted on the AbtLearn page of AGI.  Based on feedback, we are providing this calendar for the remainder of FY14, as opposed to posting a new calendar quarterly. In the weeks and months ahead, we will advise you when we update the calendar with additional instructor-led offerings. If you would like to receive a PDF of the updated FY 14 Calendar, you may download one from AGI or let us know and we will gladly email one to you.

Companywide Learning Opportunities

You’ll note that we are shifting our focus from instructor-led learning toward more eLearning. These online offerings will be available to the entire company and can be accessed anytime from any location. Our goal is to introduce these trainings in Q4 of FY14, concurrent with the transition to a new, more flexible delivery platform. Until then, please explore the large number of excellent eLearning options that are presently available:

Summary of eLearning courses and resources

WorldBank eLearning

USAID eLearning

National Institutes of Health, Fogarty International Center eLearning

Learning in NGOs (LINGOS) Last Mile Learning eLearning

MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) eLearning

As always, please contact any of us on the AbtLearn team (Jeanne Harris, Stephanie Odenheimer or me) if you have questions or recommendations.

With thanks and regards,

Nancy
