One of learning’s biggest challenges has been becoming an integral part of people’s everyday work life. A legacy of traditional classes and courses has made it so employees tend to think of learning as something separate – something that takes them away from their jobs, rather than helping them do their jobs better. It has created an environment where learning is removed from performance, and employees often take a negative view of their learning and development interactions.
Today’s technology environment exacerbates this challenge. People are used to having access to the information they need when and where they need it. Whether looking for information or consuming media, nothing is more than a click (or tap) away. It’s not just Millennials, either. We all live in an age when we are mere seconds from the answer to almost anything.
