Recommendation

What learning requirements are essential for current and future L&D success? Katja Schipperheijn provides a useful examination of the challenges faced by L&D today, complete with multiple case studies from leaders and experts.

When they get stuck, they figure out the swiftest way to overcome the hurdle – whether that means searching social media hashtags or consulting video tutorials, such as those Roblox offers via its free, virtual University.​

Likewise, workers will seek the most efficient way to get the knowledge they need to overcome obstacles they encounter...
