Global Institute for IT Management (GIIM) and Huddle Up Learning Sign Affiliation Agreement

 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Today, the Global Institute for IT Management (GIIM) and Huddle Up Learning announced an affiliation aimed to support GIIMs online/blended courses with an interactive delivery platform.

 

The agreement adds value to both organizations.

GIIM is an established global provider of IT management education programs leading to certification in the topics of business, IT, and leadership. Huddle Up Learning is a newly launched online platform aiming to transform the way that online cohorts collaborate and learn by focusing on shared ideas and feedback. The agreement gives GIIM faculty an additional alternative delivery model for GIIM blended courses.

 

“We have world class content delivered globally by academic and business experts who understand the local context. We’re excited to add Huddle Up as a delivery alternative for our programs as it provides our faculty and candidates/students an option that we didn’t have before,” added GIIM Managing Director, Jerry Luftman Ph.D. “We know that there is a growing demand for candidates to collaborate and apply their learning by sharing solutions and receiving feedback. Huddle Up provides us with an option to do more asynchronous/blended collaboration and helps us replace much of the work that we previously could only do by holding live meetings. We’re excited to offer this alternative to our affiliates to strengthen our pedagogy and boost our course enrollment.”

 

 

Huddle Up CEO and Founder Derek Luebbe expressed his enthusiasm with the agreement as well.  “Dr. Luftman and the GIIM team have successfully delivered online courses and certificates with a catalog of over 150 courses to a worldwide audience. We’re pleased to extend our reach, and support GIIM’s goals along the way. Ultimately, we want to add value to GIIM candidates who are looking for more of an online collaborative community focused on solutions and real world applications.

Transforming The Way Cohorts Collaborate and Learn

Recently, our Huddle Up team has been having a debate about the cohorts we serve. One Platform: Resources. Ideas. Feedback. Data. Do we strive to transform the way online cohorts collaborate and learn? Or, to transform the way cohorts collaborate and learn?  In short, does the interaction and data shared within Huddle Up's platform allow cohorts to have more productive virtual and face-to-face meetings? We'd like to think "yes". But ultimately, time (and data!) will tell -  as Project Leaders continue to find innovate use-cases. In the last few weeks, we've created a few helpful videos to showcase the Huddle Up model. We hope they shed light on the big potential we see for how to help cohorts be more connected, engaged, and accountable to each other by focusing on ideas and feedback.

When did collaboration and learning become separated?

I like to talk to people about what systems, structures, and platforms they use to help their teams collaborate, learn, and problem-solve.  It doesn't really matter if I'm talking with trainers, consultants, or educators. I usually hear something like this: "We have our (training) courses inside of  ( INSERT NAME OF LMS HERE) . And, then we collaborate every week on  ( INSERT ZOOM, SLACK, GOOGLE MEET, ETC) " When did we start thinking / saying this?  Was this a prevalent phrase pre-pandemic? I don't remember hearing it then. (Perhaps I wasn't listening.) It's certainly a common paradigm now. More importantly, what impact does its arrival have on the way we structure our team's environments? For starters, it brings up a few odd questions. Aren't we naturally better learners when we collaborate? Aren't we better collaborators when we're learning along the way? Don't we do one better when we incorporate the other? When we think of the syst

3 Questions to Plan Engaging Interactive Experiences

 We recently received a great question from a Project Leader. (Thanks Mike.) How can I set up the most effective Huddle Up Project?   He had recently read an earlier post we shared entitled Engagement is the key... an how to get it . In essence, there was some disconnect between that post and the ideas were were discussing. The question was a great one because we were talking about related - but different - environments.  The earlier post referred to all online activities while our tips were specific to creating an engaging Huddle Up Challenge - the backbone of the Huddle Up Project. So, we decided to share a post to show the relationship between the lists.  Helpful Tips Below, we've shared some videos and examples to add more context.  Care for some examples? Lastly, it's always helpful to see a few examples of Challenges in the context of our three questions. To what degree will this challenge allow each learner to create a unique solution?
