Key trends in L&D in 2021

Watch on-demand

For years we have talked about change in L&D, but last year action replaced talk.

The pandemic forced everyone to re-assess their approach to learning and fast. One year on and we are still in the middle of change. The implications of the changes in L&D have been far-reaching, and not all of them positive.

Pulling together the views of over 3,000 people worldwide, this session will draw on the results of Donald H Taylor’s L&D Global Sentiment Survey 2021. Join Donald and Learning Pool’s CEO, Ben Betts as they explore where L&D is now and where it’s likely to be heading in the next year, including how L&D practitioners will use this year to build a new way of working, on solid foundations.

 

In this session, we'll be sharing:

The Adapt-Adopt-Advance model, and why L&D is mostly stuck at ‘Adapt’

What L&D rejected in 2020, and what it returned to

Where L&D is now focused

Why L&D should be more important to organisations than ever

Building a new future for L&D – practical steps
