Training and Development
Onward, upward, and always learning
Training and development is an essential component of every thriving workplace — especially in this era of quickly changing technology, market conditions, and work norms. Since 2015, job skill sets have shifted by 25 percent; by 2027, that change is expected to reach 50 percent.1 A commitment to curiosity, on-going education, and, yes, upskilling, is a competitive must. 76 percent of employees say they want to work for companies who help them build their skills.2 Compelling training is a key motivator for employee recruitment, engagement, and retention.
Training and Development: A multipurpose problem-solving tool
Strategically investing in Training and Development can help resolve a multitude of workplace woes, including:
- Expensive or ineffective recruiting: Build talent from within while attracting top talent with enviable training opportunities.
- Underperforming departments or missed organizational goals: What skills or knowledge do your employees need to excel in their positions?
- Compliance issues: Save your organization time and money by training employees to avoid regulatory mistakes and minimize legal risks.
Free microlearning: Keep your workforce engaged through change.
