For the Corporate Educators among you:
A new magazine, Chief Learning Officer Magazine, launched this week. Clearly it's geared at the corporate learning market.
I know a lot of ed tech specialists in higher ed and K-12 who think that there is no relationship at the nitty-gritty practical level (as opposed to the hoity-toity theoretical level) between corporate education and primary, secondary, and even post-secondary education.
However, think about this quote from one of the articles in CLO Magazine's first issue: "The enterprise-learning market is 37 percent larger than the U.S. motion picture industry—and more than twice as large as the burgeoning video-game industry."
That's a lot of weight and a lot of resources being thrown around -- and a lot of opportunity to piggy-back off work being done in that area.
