I have taken several MDDE courses that did not use Elluminate. In MDDE605, Elluminate was introduced to us and after experiencing a few sessions on it (one last night), I realize how important and of value it can be. Why was this not introduced to us earlier in the MDDE courses?

    I agree, Gino. When I started the MDDE program, I actually assumed that some sort of web conferencing would be a part of every course. I started using web conferencing in the early 2000s for customer webinars, so I think I took it for granted. The Elluminate sessions have enriched my learning experience in this class and I would very much like to have them incorporated in to other MDDE courses.

    Laurie, I would hope that MDDE program would use Elluminate Live more, as you may have heard from Terry during our session that there is opposition to its usuage.
