Social learning happens everyday – naturally and continuously – as we connect with our friends and colleagues – both inside and outside organisations. Social media tools can play a useful part in training (including e-learning), but more importantly they are a powerful way for people to connect, share, collaborate and learn as they do they jobs in the workplace.
