How Can You Use Personalized eLearning to Drive Employee Performance and Achieve Higher ROI

My free eBook, How Can You Use Personalized eLearning to Drive Employee Performance and Achieve Higher ROI, is designed to help you understand the value in adopting Personalized eLearning.
It additionally provides insights on how it can be used to craft learning experiences that are relevant and engaging. As an extension, they provide demonstrable gains for learners and businesses, leading to a higher ROI.

How Will the eBook Help You?

eLearning and, notably, Mobile Learning are fast becoming an integral part of an organization’s training delivery.
  • Learners love the flexibility it offers (training on the go and on the device of their choice). Plus, they can consume it at the pace they are comfortable with.
  • Organizations see a significant gain in being able to reach a wider audience with a consistent message and track the progress effectively.
With this gain comes an associated challenge. While eLearning or Mobile Learning enables organizations to reach a wider audience. The same program gets rolled out to a heterogeneous audience that may have differences on account of:
  • Learner proficiency.
  • The learner’s role.
  • Learning style.
Personalization of eLearning is an effective approach to address this gap. It enables you to not only reach a wider audience but design more engaging, customized and highly relevant learning experiences.
Unlike the “one size fits all” approach, Personalized eLearning provides a far more immersive and meaningful learning experience to learners.
In this eBook, How Can You Use Personalized eLearning to Drive Employee Performance and Achieve Higher ROI, I outline how you can practically adopt Personalized eLearning for your varied corporate training needs with a focus on driving the employee performance as well as a higher ROI.
Do watch my webinar on the same topic – How Can You Use Personalized eLearning to Drive Employee Performance and Achieve Higher ROI.
Loaded with examples and live demos, this webinar will provide ideas that you can use to offer Personalized eLearning for your key training needs.

  6. What kind of trainings can leverage on the Personalized Learning based approach?
  7. What are the other measures that can enhance the impact of Personalized Learning?

This section outlines the various techniques or approaches that you can pick from to offer Personalized eLearning for your organization.

The Value and Impact of Personalized eLearning

Learner-centric approach: We are moving towards training delivery that empowers learners and provides them the requisite control. Personalized learning is a great learner-centric technique that provides a unique and custom learning experience to each learner. It also provides them the control to select the learning path based on his or her interest, existing knowledge, or the demands of his or her role.
Impact on ROI: On account of better motivation, higher engagement, improved completion rates, and increased application of the acquired learning, the usage of Personalized learning will show a better ROI on the training spend.
This is not all. It encourages a “pull” based consumption as well as self-directed, continuous learning and you can use this to eventually trigger behavioral change too.
I hope this eBook, How Can You Use Personalized eLearning to Drive Employee Performance and Achieve Higher ROI, will provide the required insights on how you can leverage on Personalized eLearning to drive employee performance and see a better ROI on your training spend.

10 Content Curation Strategies for Corporate Training

The Internet may give us data in seconds, but this often requires us to go through a maze of options before we get what would work best for us. This gap can be addressed through Content Curation that provides users the curated or relevant information they seek.
The use of Content Curation for corporate training is on a steady increase and it is being leveraged by L&D teams to support formal training as well as informal training.
  •  It is also a great booster for Self-Directed Learning.
  • It enables organizations to mine their existing knowledge bank and ensure that selected, curated content can equip their learners with right information.
Take a look at this Infographic where we list 10 Content Curation strategies for eLearning that you can use to enhance the impact of your corporate trainings.

Content Curation Strategies for Corporate Training

Content Curation enables L&D teams to offer highly relevant content to support their primary training. Its key value-adds are:
  1. Content Curation provides a repository of relevant and meaningful resources that can be accessed easily from a central location.
  2. It empowers L&D teams, Subject Matter Experts, and learners alike as they can play an active role in the process of Content Curation.
  3. You can use the opportunity of Content Curation to motivate your learners and recognize the team members for their active contribution, usage, and recommendations.
  4. Content Curation is a great way to foster a culture of continuous learning.
  5. It encourages informal learning (just-in-time learning that is particularly useful for Performance Support intervention) and, more specifically, Self-Directed Learning.
  6. Content Curation promotes inclusive learning and allows the knowledge base to be continuously enriched by learners’ contributions. (While this would need a team to audit the new resources, this would also keep the curated content dynamic, relevant, and aligned to what learners want).
