Always-on training: How to create learning in the flow of work
For most of us, work happens everywhere. In the office, at home and even on the move. This always-on environment is enabled by the technology we have at our fingertips. And this same technology is changing the way people learn.
An approach called ‘learning in the flow of work’ (LIFOW) advocates that for continuous learning to happen, the learning resources must be available within the employee’s workflow. LIFOW happens at the point of need. As employees encounter a task-related challenge at work, they can access the information on how to solve it there and then. This sets them off on a learning journey that aligns with their workflow.
So, join this People Management Insight webinar, produced in partnership with Rise Up, as we discuss how the traditional ‘push’ approach to L&D is no longer fit for purpose and unless organisations embrace LIFOW strategies now, both employees and L&D teams will be missing out on invaluable development opportunities.
The session will cover:
- How 'learning in the flow of work' can help organisations in a fuss-free and cost-effective way
- The business case for making a culture of learning a priority
- Live Q&A: all of your talent and L&D questions answered
