ILTA Roadshow – Topic Description
SharePoint: A Social Network for Learning
With SharePoint 2010 being deployed in law firms at a record pace, My Sites are all the rage for their enterprise social networking capabilities. But did you know that there is also a new school of thought on intranets from a learning and development perspective? As intranets are re-examined in preparation for SharePoint 2010, it’s looking more and more like SharePoint will be the learning portal, if not the learning center of the future. In this session we will examine how law firms are already making use of SharePoint for learning and development, the role of enterprise social networking in learning management, and the future of SharePoint as a social network for learning.  Michael Barshinger, founder and CEO of Profisciencé Partners, will be presenting this topic and Theresa Lundquist, Chief Learning Officer for Profisciencé Partners, will join him in this thought provoking discussion.

Profisciencē Partners is participating in the International Legal Technology Association’s annual educational and networking conference , “ILTA 2010 Strategic Unity,” held this year at the ARIA Resort in Las Vegas. While there, we invite you to see our newest product, the SharePoint Learning Kit (SLK), an add-on to our award winning Learning Management System, UniversitySite.

In this age of LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter, SLK uses social networking to leverage positive peer pressure, competitiveness, and the strength of interpersonal employee relationships to create a more dynamic and personal learning experience.   SLK enables firms to push UniversitySite’s most popular features into SharePoint.  Learning activities and opportunities can be distributed throughout SharePoint in a topical fashion to Intranet pages that users frequently visit, increasing their exposure.

To see the exciting features of this new product, stop by Ironwood Demo Room 16 at ILTA 2010 on Tuesday or Wednesday. You may also contact us to schedule a specific time to meet while you’re attending ILTA 2010.

We welcome the opportunity to meet with you and look forward to showing you performance management solutions that include learning management (UniversitySite) and skill assessment (SkillSite), exceptional tools designed to meet the unique business demands of your firm.

Conference Description:
This event, held in London on July 13th, 2010 and run by Tikit in conjunction with the UK Document Excellence Group (UKDEG), aims to explore current developments and attitudes towards Microsoft Office and Word. The one-day conference will also present the changes Microsoft Office 2010 has brought, what strategic partners are doing to support Office 2010 integration, and its overall significance to legal document production. Attendees will be able to learn about law firms’ experiences with implementation, and have the opportunity to fire questions to speakers and vendors.

Conference Session Delivered by Theresa Lundquist:
Profisciencē Partners will be participating in Word Excellence Day with Theresa Lundquist presenting the topic “Rethink Your Implementation Strategy for Office 2010.” This session will challenge the audience to take a bold and comprehensive approach in designing and leveraging their Office 2010 rollout as a learning experience that ensures secretaries will significantly improve their document production skills.

Theresa will provide a brief overview that targets why identifying tangible outcomes—such as improvements in secretary performance, an increase in productivity, and a reduction in costs—points to the firm’s ability to successfully increase attorney to secretary ratios, provide better desk coverage across teams, and significantly improve client service—and by implementing a learning platform that supports these goals, training departments will capitalize on the potential to deliver training that has real business impact.
