Business Skills Training Tips for the Modern World

Online web training via e learning services is just one of the key business skills training tips required by modern businesses, according to a leading European business learning expert.

Fabrizio Cardinali, CEO of Giunti Labs and chair of the European Learning Industry Group (ELIG), speaking at the recent Training Transformation Symposium, held at the Royal School of Mechanical Engineering (RSME) in Chatham, Kent, highlighted key business skills training tips all businesses need in the modern world.

Thanks to the technological changes there is really no need to limit what you do with e learning services.

"The traditional idea is that you produce average curricula to train average people,” explains Cardinali.

“Now, however, the technology exists to allow you to find out what each individual doesn't know and needs to know - and this allows you to design learning materials for that person and so speed up his/ her time to competence.”

Five Business Skills Training Tips Include:

• Bridging skills and competency gaps by adopting competency-based qualifications which take account of the rapid changes in the skills and knowledge that today's workers need.

• Fostering personalised learning.

• Using new media and knowledge distribution channels.

• Engage each learner, via constructive, personalised self-development learning rather than 'behavioural, prescriptive learning'. This enables the delivery of personal ambient learning (PAL) - learning that follows the learner, knows where the leaner is, what they need to know and so on.

• Use open and interoperable technologies to enable the interchanging of standard components in learning design, development and delivery.

Advocates of online learning always point out that one of the major benefits of eLearning is that fact that is self-paced and the learning sessions are available 24x7, a major benefit in the digital age of constant communication and long working hours.
