Conference Archive

DevLearn 2015 Conference & Expo - October 2, 2015

Migration to virtual training delivery is a “must consider” strategy for most geographically dispersed organizations. The Army & Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES) is an $8 billon organization that supports soldiers, airmen, and their families with over 2,400 retail facilities. Training the staff that supports those operations is a worldwide task. AAFES needed a better and more effective training strategy.

In this session you will learn the development and execution of a virtual training strategy for AAFES sales associates in the PowerZone and Outdoor Living store segments. You will learn from the AAFES’s implementation how to successfully migrate from a live training strategy to a virtual delivery model. You will learn what worked, what adjustments were made to the second event, and the continuing evolution of virtual events within the organization. The case study highlights the lessons learned and the best practices for similar projects.
