With regard to the virtual events, I believe that we are moving into the phase beyond just "replicating online." While this is one option for some organizations, we consult our customers on how to leverage the best of virtual to provide the best experience possible. In the case of the event at the end of the month, we're looking at ways to blend the experience. Thanks and look forward to hearing your comments! Cece Jeff – That’s unfortunate!

Ironically, the place-based event I wrote about here has been canceled due to bad weather. There are some rumblings about a virtual alternative coming together. It would be great if that happens. By way of further clarification - I'm not opposed to or even skeptical about virtual events in general, I'm just dismayed that many organizations seem to do no more than transfer their placed-based conferences online without transforming them in any significant way. The same thing happens all the time with moving classroom-based courses to online. They have their value, but they tend to fall far short of what the full value could be. I'll definitely check out your virtual event. Jeff Cece- Thanks for commenting. Ironically, the place-based event I wrote about here has been canceled due to bad weather.

Emma King, a learning strategist, provided a guest post on our blog on how a virtual environment is perfect for learning (http://bit.ly/aLGt0k). This might provide some insight for you. As for attending a virtual event yourself, my company is planning to hold a virtual event companion to this year's Virtual Edge conference.
