We are 200+ organizations seeking a few new colleagues. We include the learning leaders of some of the largest companies in the world (e.g. McDonald's, Southwest Airlines, Shell, The Kellogg Company, American Express, etc.). Every day throughout the year, Learning CONSORTIUM members turn to each other and the staff of The MASIE Center for benchmarking, networking, research and collaboration in the Learning and Training field. Here are a few examples of how our CONSORTIUM benefits from collaboration on a daily basis: A member contacts the CONSORTIUM office to identify 2 members using a specific Learning Management System to get references, context and experiences. Six members collaborate in a working group to consider alternative models for employee orientation and onboarding. Elliott Masie conducts briefings with learning executives from a few member organizations. Members participate in a “rapid fire” poll to benchmark spending per employee on compliance issues. A MASIE staff member attends a conference and sends a podcast and text summary to all CONSORTIUM members. A member brings several of its business leaders to The MASIE Center Lab in Saratoga for a strategy session on the futures of learning and collaboration. More than 3,000 people in 200+ organizations worldwide collaborate and learn together on the issues and challenges you face. Together, we are evaluating, inventing, revising and improving the exciting field of learning! This is a community of trust, appropriate confidentiality and syndicated efforts to enhance the effectiveness of our efforts on learning and training. The Learning CONSORTIUM is a small and very focused organization. The charge is only $5,000 per entire company for a year of service, collaboration and events. Our model is to be a long-term, trusted collaborative of learning professionals that is vendor-neutral and ethically based.
