The ever expanding range of devices used by people today has redefined the way eLearning is developed. eLearning now needs to be accessible on almost every device to give learners the flexibility to learn anytime and anywhere. What this entails is a thorough testing of the learning resource on all target devices and configurations, giving rise to the need for multi-device testing.

To help L&D professionals understand and conduct reliable multi-device testing to deliver high quality eLearning projects, Upside Learning has arranged a webinar titled ‘Multi-device Testing – Challenges, Considerations and Solutions’. Scheduled on October 16^th at 10 AM IST  and 3 PM BST, the insightful webinar will be presented by Upside’s in-house experts – Geera Bellare, AVP (Learning Design) and Anushka Khairajani, Associate Manager (Quality). Drawing on the company’s 10+ years of experience in designing, developing and testing eLearning courseware, Multi-device Testing – Challenges, Considerations and Solutions will cover the following topics:

• Understanding Multi-Device Testing
• Challenges and considerations of Multi-Device Testing
• Possible solutions, with their benefits and drawbacks
• How our Multi-Device Testing Lab can help

Upside Learning, a leading provider of learning technology solutions, will be participating as a seminar sponsor in the Learning@Work 2014 conference. To be held in Sydney, Australia from 27^th to 29^th October, the event will bring together international visionaries and thought leaders presenting on the latest topics, trends and challenges affecting the workplace learning environment, and devising strategies to enhance organisational L&D offering.

One of the major challenges almost all organisations face today is the wide range of devices on which eLearning needs to be supported. Different browsers, sizes, operating systems and platforms further add to this challenge. In making eLearning truly accessible, L&D professionals are now starting to feel the need to move towards HTML. To help them understand the why and how of converting eLearning to HTML, Upside Learning’s Co-founder and Director, Amit Garg, will present an informative learning session titled, ‘The why and how of moving your eLearning to HTML’ on 27^th October at 2:15, 2:50 & 3:25 PM (AEDT).

Upside Learning will be present at stand # 2 where it will play host to a wide range of innovative learning technology solutions namely:

• UpsideLMS, its fully responsive, multi-award winning Learning Management System ;
• Custom eLearning;
• Custom mLearning;
• FRED (Framework for Responsive eLearning Development);
• Multi-device Testing Lab (for reliable and thorough testing of multi-device eLearning projects).
