pdf How MillerCoors Saved Thousands by Rolling Out Software Using Social Learning

They also knew the range of ages in the sales force meant they would need to address a variety of learning styles as some would want face-to-face time with an instructor, others would want a user name and password and time to figure it out on their own, and others would need a mix of support and independence.

Carrie Urban, Learning Solutions Designer; Jay Anders, Manager of Learning Governance & Systems; and Chris Nilles, Learning Solutions Designer, decided to try something radically new at MillerCoors by initiating a social learning platform to a company that had traditionally used eLearning as a prerequisite for classroom training.
