About this session

Stop running events.

Start leading learning programs.

There is a real difference between running virtual events and leading a virtual learning program. One produces a calendar of sessions. The other is intentionally designed to produce learning outcomes, measurable evidence, and continuous improvement.

In this session, we explore a practical design-and-data framework grounded in Knowles’ Adult Learning Theory and the Five Principles of Effective Online Learning — showing how strong program design and meaningful data work together to drive real impact.

The Framework

4 Pillars of Strategic Event Design

A connected system — not a checklist — that transforms how your organization designs and measures virtual programs.

Pillar 01

Adult Learning Theory
Knowles' principles applied to virtual event design

Pillar 02

Program Design Standards
Each principle mapped to a clear design action

Pillar 03

Airmeet Features
Platform tools that activate each learning principle

Pillar 04

Evidence & Data
The metrics that confirm whether it actually worked

What You'll Learn

  • Differentiate between a virtual events model and a virtual learning program model — and identify the operating elements required to produce measurable learning outcomes, evidence, and continuous improvement.
  • Apply Knowles' Adult Learning Theory and the Five Principles of Effective Online Learning to the design of your virtual learning events.
  • Map adult learning principles to specific program design standards, Airmeet features, and data points to create more effective virtual learning experiences.

What You'll Walk Away With

  • A strategic planning template you can use immediately after the session
  • An organizational capability assessment to evaluate your current virtual learning program
  • A focused 90-day action plan to identify opportunities and drive measurable improvement

“I was really excited to see how alive Airmeet seemed. The first time I raised my virtual hand to ask a question, I was brought up on stage, my camera flipped on, and I was able to talk with the presenters, that was the sold-moment in my head! That is what I wanted. We weren't going to be speaking at our audience. We wanted a two-way engagement. With the analytics in the background, that was my “Aha moment!”
