From The Director's Desk
 
I have been in the UK for the past one month, meeting up with customers, some old some new and some would be, talking and discussing on learning, training and more. One theme that has stayed constant in all these discussions is how learning will shape in the future inline with the emerging technologies. I believe the ramification of these technologies will be profound and will be applicable to all markets across the world. Read our views on this in the Now Trending section.

On the events front, we have been participating in expos back-to-back, showcasing our solutions and services, meeting wonderful people like you and forging new connections. With only a few days remaining for mLearnCon we are up and about on our toes.

May was also a special month for UpsideLMS. It was then that Brandon Hall Group announced UpsideLMS as the winner of 5 Excellence in Learning Technology Awards (2010). We owe our success to our clients, you – the readers and other stakeholders as much as to all our team members. Thank you for being a part of our family.
 
 
I hope you enjoy this issue. Look forward to talking to you the next month.
