Why We Must Embrace the Consumerization of Learning

Description

The market is changing fast, and jobs are being reinvented every 3-5 years. The problem is, we can’t go back to school every 3-5 years because it’s time consuming and expensive. Combined with people’s changing workplace expectations, we find ourselves in a new working world with a different set of employee engagement challenges.

The solution to all these challenges is to consumerize learning at work. Why? Your training solution should operate at a higher level. Your employees expect the best user experience from their favorite personal apps in their daily lives, and the technology expectation at work should be no different. People want an intuitive and engaging learning experience, so that they can acquire new skills at their moment of need. This is what consumerizing learning is able to achieve. In order to succeed at developing and retaining the best talent, organizations today must invest in consumer-first learning technology that keeps up with changes in the market, and keeps employees productive and happy.
