SMNX203 Empower Your Digital Workforce with Learning in the Flow of Work
12:15 PM - 1:00 PM Thursday, October 24
Expo Hall: Management Xchange Stage
The employee skills gap is widening, but employees have even less time for training today. According to a LinkedIn Workplace Learning survey, employees are able to set aside barely five minutes per day for formal learning. L&D managers agree that traditional training methods are not adequate to equip a workforce for the future. With workplace learning being one of the biggest motivators for employees, how does L&D meet the learning needs of today’s digital workforce and create a culture of ongoing learning?
In this session you will learn how “learning in the flow of work” makes training relevant and gives employees the right information to do tasks productively. Since it is delivered right when and where learners need it, it dramatically improves retention and productivity. Learning in the flow of work is an intelligent mix of micro and macro learning. It fills an important gap through in-depth measuring of learner progress and its impact on business. Since it doesn’t require employees to get away from their day-to-day work, it’s more effective and easier to incorporate into their already-packed days. Learning in the flow of work meets the expectations of today’s learners, who expect:
- Relevant information available at the moment of need to improve productivity
- Instant knowledge discovery and delivery from all sources of knowledge
- Learning that’s precise and personalized to a user’s needs
- Training rendered in a self-serve mode, so employees learn at their own pace
In this session, you will learn:
- How L&D managers can augment traditional training with more effective live training
- How L&D can provide personalized and contextual training to employees at their place of work
- How to train employees on multiple, complex software systems and create a homogenous training experience
- How to make all enterprise knowledge accessible to employees to promote continuous learning
- How to create effective and engaging training content with minimal time and no coding effort
