With applications ranging from adaptive learning paths to content creation support, AI is enabling personalised learning experiences and automating tasks, making learning more efficient and effective.
With AI tools providing instant answers using company-specific data, AI is revolutionising how employees access information at work. Which necessitates a shift beyond traditional knowledge-based eLearning towards skills development.
Learners have moved beyond the top-down push of content, to a bottom-up approach, where learners are empowered to create and share knowledge. This democratisation of learning allows subject-matter experts to share their expertise with peers, creating more relevant and engaging learning experiences.
This model provides a framework for moving from knowledge-based learning to skills-based learning. It emphasises the importance of practice and application in a real-world context, with subject-matter experts playing a crucial role in supporting learners through different phases of learning and development.
AI enables L&D to move beyond knowledge transfer and compliance training and focus on developing skills that directly impact business outcomes. This shift requires L&D to become more integrated with the business, actively supporting employees in their roles and solving real-world problems.
Acting as authors, trainers, coaches, and mentors... empowering subject-matter experts to create and share knowledge, L&D can leverage their expertise to deliver more impactful and relevant learning experiences.
