Why enabling a continuous learning culture is critical for your organisation
LinkedIn research shows that in the months following the 2020 COVID-19 lockdowns across the globe, employees spent 130% more time developing their knowledge and skills whilst working from home.
With large parts of Australia in lockdown, and millions of employees once again working from home, eLearning can play an important part in maintaining a culture of continuous learning in your organisation.
At a time when many might feel anxious that their professional development is stalling, eLearning can provide employees with the opportunity to fortify and acquire new skills whilst working remotely, as well as boost their engagement and performance.
How can you implement eLearning in you organisation?
There’s never been a more pressing need to deliver a continuous learning culture within organisations. By doing so, you can provide employees with the support and structure they need to develop their skills and weather what may be a trying time for them.
Thanks to Access Learning, implementing eLearning is both quick and agile. Our Learning Management System (LMS), which is ranked in the top five globally, can help your organisation train and develop your employees anytime, anywhere and on any device with the free Learning path App.
We provide a large selection of pre-selected industry-leading courses, maintained by a digital learning team and their subject matter experts. It can help enable an always-on digital learning experience that engages your employees and drives business performance.
What are the key considerations when choosing an LMS?
Deciding on which LMS is right for your organisation is often a difficult process. So what are the key questions you should ask when choosing an LMS? Here are three of the most critical:
- Are the courses offered kept up-to-date and relevant?
- Does it offer soft skills courses to support the wellbeing of employees?
- Does it offer health and safety courses for remote working, and can you report on them?
If your organisation doesn’t currently have an LMS in place, now is the time to reflect on your digital resources. Is your organisation stuck in the past rather than embracing new tech? Can it afford risking the disengagement of employees at a time when they may be struggling whilst working remotely?
No one could have imagined the world we’re working in today. However, one constant an organisation must never overlook is the importance of investing in their employees and supporting the continuous learning culture.
