 About This Event:

On Monday, December 7th, MKELive and its strategic partners are inviting Milwaukee area business professionals and METRO-Milwaukee Education and Training Organization to celebrate the season and establish new business relationships that can lead to a profitable 2010 at Cuvee, one of Milwaukee’s trendiest and most-engaging holiday venues.

Located in Milwaukee ’s trendy Third Ward, Cuvee is definitely worth finding. It offers more than one hundred varieties of champagne and sparkling wine – the most comprehensive selection of champagne and sparkling wine in the state!

“This holiday event will be a little more relaxed for MKELive, a way to say thank you for a great 2009 and best wishes for 2010,” said Katie Felten, president MKE Live. “We work hard to plan networking events that are in venues unique to the Milwaukee area. Cuvee certainly fits this description. It’s a great setting for a holiday party. For people that have never been there, I’m sure they’ll never forget it.”

The event will include live music from the “Keith Sarnow Trio,” a visit from Santa, a relaxed holiday networking environment and more.

The event will also serve as a Toys For Tots drop off location. Attendees that bring a new toy to the MKELive holiday gala will be entered into a special drawing for tickets to sporting events and more.

“Our goal is to surround the evening’s tree with 300 toys for needy children,” said Felten.

The MKELive Holiday Gala will be held on Monday, December 7th from 5:30-8:30 at Cuvee in Milwaukee ’s Historic Third Ward (located at 181 N. Broadway, Third Floor).

The cost is $10.00. Please pre-register at www.mkelive.com.

How do you accommodate various learning styles and generational differences in one e-Learning program?

On November 20, 2009, Milwaukee Education and Training Organization (METRO) at www.metrotraininggroup.com will be sponsoring Marcia Gauger as she presents the topic:

“Designing Effective eLearning Across Generations”.

This session will examine the instructional design considerations when developing interactive content for learners who are different generations and learning styles. Gen X, Gen Y and Boomers differ as learners and they do have different preferences and needs when it comes to the design of the e-Learning. You will see how color, graphics, fonts, layout and other factors should differ for Gen X, Gen Y and Boomer learners.
