The Top Five Best Practices in e-Learning |
| Investigate Before You Buy |
|
 To paraphrase George Orwell, "Some online training classes are more equal than others." But when faced with choosing the best possible e-Learning course or provider, what are the critical factors that you should consider? What are the best practices?
At MoreSteam, we believe that five factors play a decisive role in whether or not a course will provide you with an exceptional learning experience:
-
The quality of the content
-
The level of interactivity
-
The percentage of time devoted to practice
-
The flexibility of the interface
-
The stability of the technology
To Certify or Not To Certify
Is That Really the Question?
 Only 5% of the more than 1,000 Black Belts responding to the 6th Annual iSixSigma Global Salary Survey reported that they held no Six Sigma certification. Therefore, it seems that the old question of ‘to be or not to be’ a certified Black Belt is irrelevant. Certification has become a baseline qualification for Six Sigma practitioners and for many Quality and Business Process Improvement professionals these days. Today’s question is ‘How should I become certified?’.
If you’re seriously thinking about earning your certification, you’ll need to carefully weigh the many available options. Click here for a short checklist to assist in your consideration of the plentitude of Six Sigma certification programs.

While we were recently submitting a simple two-line invoice, we encountered this error message within the company's electronic invoicing system:
Does that mean that they expect to be billed in increments of .0005?
