A study by the National Center for Education Statistics revealed that well-designed instruction can increase learning outcomes by up to 25%. Unfortunately, it also showed that only 40% of companies believe their learning strategy is effectively measured.
While organizations understand the value of crafting a learning strategy, many lose track of the key areas of focus. There are essentially six pillars to creating an effective learning strategy. When done right, it will help organizations to empower workers, accelerate transformation, and ultimately deliver stronger business results.
