Simply use the embed tags to add video to news articles, or add the URL links to Knowledge Centers or put the video in as pages in The Courseware Manager. If you use video in Courseware Manager courses, you can add pre- and post-knowledge check questions and voila, as if by magic, you have a full course.

Would be Nice if (certain) studente can also add content. Discussions around THE subjects should be possible etc? I am interested in your thoughts about that and possibilities in EKP in the future (which we are using) Hi Jay,

I would like to be able to share (free) content like TED/YouTube/blogs etc via EKP. Would be Nice if (certain) studente can also add content. Discussions around THE subjects should be possible etc?

I am interested in your thoughts about that and possibilities in EKP in the future (which we are using)

]]> Comment on An analyst states the obvious (finally) by SAS 70 Auditor http://www.netdimensions.com/blog/2010/09/07/gartner-states-the-obvious-finally/comment-page-1/#comment-148 SAS 70 Auditor Wed, 08 Sep 2010 14:36:20 +0000 http://www.netdimensions.com/blog/?p=274#comment-148 The Gartner report does not, in any way, state that you should not rely on a SAS 70 report. It takes issue with anyone claiming that they are SAS 70 "certified", a marketing issue rather than a problem with the standard. It also takes issue with MARKETING claims that the SAS 70 audit is evidence of anything beyond the scope of the audit...which is impossible to know without reviewing the report. Did you see anything in the Gartner report that was derogatory towards the standard itself? If so, please cite it here for discussion.

So true. There is a real polarization between the “use once and toss it out” school of thought and the version control school. Growth in chaos is not a linear function — it all goes horribly wrong horribly fast . . .

You talk specifically about compliance issues here but I'd say that the actual survival of an organization may very well depend on effectively managing this chaos. When organizations have a giant set of disconnected files that require tons of maintenance if there is a change or update, when they have no mechanisms for sharing or reusing content across multiple delivery modalities, and when they have no ability to effectively filter through volumes of content for rapid customization, they will never be able to cost-efficiently and in a rapid time-to-market meet the needs of their employees or the requirements of their clients or prospects. Unfortunately, many training organizations still operate in this manner, hence the explosive growth of the disposable rapid e-learning market that you mention. Is it any wonder training departments often struggles to gain a level of prominence within an organization? Thanks Jay, this is a great post.
