The current approaches are not working • Learning Management Systems Closed environment; primary success is compliance training only • Tuition Assistance Benefits Utilization under 5% • eLearning/MOOCs Focus on content; does not help learner figure out what’s right for them. Not connected to how learners “consume” education
- 10. Why is this happening? • Skills change quickly; building learning content is slow • Too many choices; people need guidance • Managers are not in the process • Learning and development is a process (not a 5 minute video) • Learning initiatives are not aligned 10
- 11. Polling Question: Is Your Tuition Assistance Aligned with Learning and Development? • Not at all; these are separate activities. • Sometimes we talk to each other. • Partial integration; our tuition policy supports the skills we need. • Full integration and alignment with skills development initiatives, including data and user experience.
