Organization Launches Interactive Online Education

New e-learning offers better interaction than traditional online formats

To better meet its members’ education needs, CUES is rolling out a type of e-learning that offers more interaction than traditional online education formats do.

Recognizing that not all its members have the time and budget required to travel to in-person education programs, as well as that some topics are difficult to tackle in the traditional online learning environment, the industry group for credit union executives, CUES, recently launched a live-taught web-based series called the CUES Elite Access Virtual Classroom.

The virtual classroom allows interaction among the instructor and participants. Participants can ask the instructor questions, and attendees can break into small-group discussions through conference calls. “The goal is to provide an online learning experience closer to what people would experience if they were actually in a classroom, in a way that’s convenient and affordable,” said Christopher Stevenson, senior vice president and chief learning officer.
