How AI is Redefining eLearning in the Corporate WorldExplore the revolutionary impact of Artificial Intelligence on training and development and gain insights into AI-powered learning solutions and their potential to drive employee engagement and performance.
Since World War II, the United States has gone an average of 58.4 months between recessions, or nearly five years. This statistic tell us that you'll face a few recessions during your career - how can you make sure you're prepared?
While eLearning is an effective model for online training regardless of the circumstances, it’s particularly well-suited to a tough economic environment. To better understand how eLearning will help cost-efficiency, we can look at situations where eLearning can help companies that are succeeding, as well as how it can help companies that are struggling.
Why eLearning is ideal if you need to train workers quickly
When the economy is heading towards an economic downturn, not every industry will face problems. Some, in fact, thrive due to increased demand for their products or services.
For an example, when Covid forced quarantines and lockdowns, grocery stores have never been busier. Stores saw worker shortages at both the front or back of the store, with higher demand for products and people they needed to hire (and therefore train).
This is the time that eLearning becomes imperative for these types of businesses. It can give them a versatile platform to train a high volume of workers on the various practices and procedures they’ll need to be onboarded quickly and modernly.
In times such as these, employers who need training have two options:
- Option one: Change nothing about your organization’s training
- Option two: Adapt and optimize training for a new world
Although training solutions may have an initial cost, the option to do nothing is not really an option, for any business that wants to stay afloat and productive during these tough times. No matter what industry you find yourself in, eLearning less of an option than a necessity now. Tap into eLearning to help make your company’s online training recession-resistant.
Why eLearning helps if your industry is struggling at the moment
Unfortunately, many businesses and companies hurt economically during an economic crash. While those businesses won’t necessarily need training services at this very moment, they will need a plan for when things return to normal.
Recessions serve as a very clear wake-up call - if you don’t have a plan for how to work remotely or how to train from anywhere, you need one! Using a personizable eLearning platform is how you can prepare for that time frame. Having a versatile online training platform helps keep your company’s approach to training agile and ready to meet your employees where they are. That’s something you’ll already want to have in place once the crisis calms down.
