Notes

Seeking help assessing lesson plans that are written in a script vs outline
Updating Training Team Handbook to match current team procedures and workflows
- Will Learn and Training team have separate handbooks/guidelines? (Likely yes, Learn guidelines would be for those using materials there, while Training would address how the team works)
Work will begin soon on drafting brand guidelines and requesting contributing advisors
@carike will draft a post on economic considerations in relation to content delivery on Learn.
Many present today indicated time to contribute has been a limiting factor for work.
Learn Working Group recap
