e-Workshops: The Perfect Summertime Training
Learn New Skills and Still Have Time for the Beach!

Information Mapping’s e-workshops are highly focused, 2 ½-hour, instructor-led online training sessions that introduce you to valuable new skills. You will gain new skills that you can immediately use on the job.

We frequently get questions about how to use gridlines effectively. Here are a few of the most common ones.

From Baseball to Business:
Information Mapping Knows No Bounds for
Corporate Sales VP Bill Whitlock

When Bill Whitlock started coaching his six-year-old son Michael’s baseball team, he had to reread the team's rules five times before he understood them. "They were a hodgepodge of information," he says, "and I got frustrated trying to follow them."

Putting his Information Mapping skills to work, Bill transformed the mishmash of rules into a clear, well-organized document that helps parents and team members quickly find what they need—from batting and pitching rules to the team's code of conduct.

Case Study: Web Site Offers Tips and Tools for More Productive Meetings; Dramatically Reduces Calls for Support

“How do I create a meeting agenda?” “How do I make sure people follow through on tasks?” “What’s the best way to deal with a person who dominates my meeting?”

Calls about how to run effective meetings were coming in fast and furious to Kathleen Paris, Ph.D. at the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s Office of Quality Improvement.
