History and Mission
ASTD launched Learning Circuits in January 2000. Its goal was to promote and aid the use of e-learning, creating a body of knowledge about how to use technology efficiently and effectively for learning. It delivers a fully interactive Website with discussions, demos and resources, and articles on a weekly basis. A monthly opt-in email newsletter, LC Express, sends news, teasers, and links to subscribers. There are nearly 800 articles currently on the Website.
