CURATING CONTENT
Serving up the right content at the right place and time will continue
to increase learning’s efficiency and effectiveness. Microlearning is key,
building skills in small modules.

Businesses will make learning accessible through various systems and devices and embed it into the
workflow, eliminating separate systems and silos.
EVALUATING BUSINESS IMPACT
Organizations expect to be able to link learning to business results and impact—the ability to measure has become crucial,
not optional.
SHIFTING OWNERSHIP
Managers and business units will take on more accountability for driving learning into the culture, removing some of the burden
from HR.
PERSONALIZING EXPERIENCES THROUGH MACHINE LEARNING
Offering staff relevant recommendations and social feedback within the content
experience will become increasingly important.

work-life balance and expand well-being initiatives.
