Social Learning And Its Impact On Employee L&D

Organizations are beginning to recognize the value of getting employees to learn together.

What will you learn?

Organizations are beginning to recognize the value of getting employees to learn together. They're more engaged, they retain more information, they build better team cultures, and it's cost effective. This white paper will propose that the solution to digital training isn’t more online quizzes and training videos but Social Learning instead.

Social Learning builds a more connected workforce while also accelerating their professional training. It’s equal parts culture-building and employee development.”
