I was reading Josh Berin’s blog the other day and he was talking about learning trends. He described how we have moved through 4 key phases in the last 30 years:
• Traditional and computer assisted training in the 1980’s and 1990’s (Apparently 60% of all training in the US is till classroom based – my guess is that in Australia it is even higher.)
• E Learning Era 1998 – 2004
• Blended and Informal Learning 1995 – today
• Collaborative, Talent driven learning 2008+
He sees that now is another big step change.
The full article is very interesting and his Enterprise Learning Framework® fascinating.
The research they have conducted concludes that the current challenge for L and D professionals is not developing new content but is building an organisational learning culture and giving people within companies the skills to be effective learners.
It’s a blog to watch as they are due to release in June a research study on high impact learning strategies. I’ll keep you posted.
Any thoughts or statistics re % of training that is classroom based in Australia now?
Let me know.
