Enhancing Skills Through Professional Development

THE CHALLENGE

In many traditional workplace settings, professional development opportunities are often limited and generic, leading to stagnant employee skills and performance. This is sometimes a legacy big companies can’t shake off as they drag their feet into the future. Sometimes it’s the best  limited HR and LD teams can manage, considering the span of responsibilities and the number of employees. It seems that it correlates with the size of the company – the bigger the company the more generic development plans, if any. 

Many employees find themselves stuck in a routine, unable to keep pace with the rapidly evolving demands of their industries. This lack of growth not only hampers individual career progression but also affects the overall competitiveness and innovation of the organization. With the stats showing that  94% of employees would stay longer in companies that are willing to invest in their professional development (Research.com), and that 76% of employees say they are more likely to stay with a company that offers continuous training (2022 Workplace Learning & Development Trends Report) – the WHY to providing a good professional development and career training is clear. 

The HOW is what the market and LD specialists struggle to answer. HR teams have to find a way to provide effective professional development that caters to the diverse needs of their workforce while aligning with the organization’s strategic goals – on a budget.

This is because e-learning is asynchronous, allowing learners to access the material as needed without interrupting their daily tasks.
