Jan 2007	Custom DVD to help pubs and clubs with their Responsible Service of Alcohol Training Learning Innovations has completed a 25 minute instruction DVD to help pubs and clubs with their RSA training and to comply with the Registered Clubs Act and the Liquor Act. This DVD follows three patrons on their big night out where you see actual live security footage of how staff react and deal with the situation that gets out of control while reviewing key points of the legislation. “We had to get very creative as we only had the security footage to work with and really needed to liven up the final presentation. What we did was create an atmosphere whereby the learner could review legislation while still wondering what is going to happen next. We added a timeline and a beer clock and some great background music and also named the characters MR Stripe, Green and White. The feedback has been fantastic and it is a great teaching aid for RSA” Lee Stewart, Learning Innovations Click here to view the RSA Case Study

September 2006	Skilling Australia Conference On the 21st and 22nd of September Learning Innovations was supporting our partners Management Consultancy International (MCI) at the Skilling Australian Conference in Sydney. The conference was aimed at addressing the nation’s skills shortages and the key note speaker was the Hon John Howard MP and Prime Minister of Australia. It was important to note that during John Howard’s speech he noted that education is moving to be more on demand and needs to be accessible where and when the learners want it either in the classroom, workplace or at home. We found John Howard’s speech to be very encouraging and we believe that eLearning has a large part to play in the future of Skilling Australia. Please click here to download the conference brochure.

By looking at what elements we can convert to an e-learning situation we can combine the best of both world’s and tap into the extensive experience that MCI has.” Over the next few months expect to hear more about the partnership as the two organisations look to explore numerous possibilities.
