@yourLTEN: Customizing
Your Experience
Bonus
Opportunity
Post a welcome note
to the LTEN
SocialLink feed by
June 11, 2017, telling
us how long you've
been an LTEN
member and a little
about yourself. If you
do, you'll be entered
in a drawing for $100
Amazon gift card!

@

yourLTEN is more than our Twitter
handle for social media and
"Customization" is more than another
"C" to add to the LTEN moniker: It's the
philosophy and foundation of LTEN. e more
you make the LTEN resources meet your needs,
the more value you will gain from your
membership. LTEN provides a plethora of
opportunities for you to customize your LTEN
encounters and to maximize your experience.
e actions are in your hands.
e first step is to ensure your LTEN profile
is accurate and reflects your interests. Log onto
L-TEN.org and let us know what your specific
interests are. When we know, we can best
customize communications to meet your
needs. For example, if you state that
"leadership" is one of your interests, you will
receive communications regarding any new
leadership programs in development. You may
even be asked to help build the program
content to ensure we are hitting the mark for
members. Let us know your birthday and we
will send you a card to celebrate your big day.
While visiting L-TEN.org, check out the
library of data utilizing the search function. e
search feature on the L-TEN.org website can be
a great solution for pulling together
information from different LTEN resources.
When you enter a search term, you'll see
categorized results that cover the website,
publications, events, documents (including
white papers), Friday news blogs and forums.
Wondering how to find that interesting
person you met at the annual conference or a
mixer? e search feature also scours the LTEN
Member Directory, so you can more easily
connect with LTEN colleagues and provider
members to network and find solutions.

Of course, using a search feature requires
careful attention to terminology. For example, a
search for the word "facilitation" produces 141
results, including a Focus On Training article,
archived webinars, several white papers and a
listing of members with an interest in that area.
Using a broader term - such as "train" -
produces more than 1,000 results. So, as you
find a need for resources, be sure to try
different words and approaches to make the
most of the search function.
Another connection opportunity for you is
the LTEN Community SocialLink platform, the
new social chat function on the redesigned and
mobile-friendly LTEN website. e solution
allows members to connect to other life
sciences training professionals and partners
through a secure, virtual space. It's a forum
where members can connect one-on-one,
create group messages, message peers and post
questions or ideas to the wider group. e
interface is quite simple, with the activity feed
and messaging tools resembling a simplified
Facebook or LinkedIn. Best of all, the sleek
design renders well across all of your devices
and very shortly will include a mobile app
component. Get started by logging into your
member account at www.L-TEN.org and select
SocialLink located under the Members tab.
Also, if you're attending the 46th LTEN
Annual Conference, stop by the LTEN booth to
get a hands-on demonstration of all of the
newest LTEN tools, including the SocialLink
platform. We'll also be demonstrating the new
LTEN eLearning Lounge, so be sure to stop by.
More than a Twitter handle, @yourLTEN is
your website gateway to resources to support
your Career, build your Community, find the
Clarity you need to excel in your role! ■
