Abstract
Economic impact is deep & challenging higher education institutions around the globe. Many training & development budgets are non-existent, which has spawned a growth of grass-roots initiatives for professional development. Higher Ed professionals & faculty have begun to identify personal learning networks (PLNs) to connect & learn instead.
