301 Preparing Your Company for an Augmented Reality Learning Program

11:30 AM - 12:30 PM Thursday, July 23

Augmented reality is a powerful tool that can help your team achieve learning goals in a meaningful and hands-on way. But within the L&D field, there's a lot of misunderstanding about what exactly AR can do and how it can be implemented. And this can make it a challenge get everyone at your organization—and even just your team—on board with what you need to know to make an augmented reality learning program a success.

In this session, you'll explore the steps you'll want to take in order to successfully launch an AR program at your organization, including how to get buy-in and acceptance by business units. You'll find out about creating a solid business case as a reason to use AR, and how a business partner proposing to use AR to solve a particular challenge can make it easier to implement AR solutions. You'll then look at how to match the AR use case with your business' core values to make sure people understand how specifically this new technology is going to impact the organization. You'll discover strategies for finding appropriate business cases and how to work with an internal team to plan, build, implement, and maintain an AR project.
