Summary: My latest eBook, "Updated eLearning Trends 2020—18 Key Trends To Realign Remote Workforce Training Strategy In The Post Pandemic World," is designed to help you pick the right trends as you transition to a remote workforce training strategy.

Changing Workplace Dynamics: A Focus On Remote Learning

Every July, I look back at the eLearning trends and predictions I released in January to ascertain how my analysis and recommendations panned out. This year, the COVID-19 crisis has reset the trends, leaving HR leaders and L&D teams to rethink the way they will manage and train the workforce. Training remote learners and driving performance gain remotely is the new reality. So, I re-examined my original list against these pressing needs of today.

As you embark on your virtual training transformation, this eBook will help you pick the right trend for a successful implementation.

Even though the overall impact of the crisis is still unfolding, it has clearly redefined the workplace. An increase in work from home has led to a need to have an agile and flexible digital workplace. Organizations need to create a digital workplace that can easily move from 100% in-office to 100% remote work. As a result, rapid virtual training transformation needs to be undertaken to provide online training for remote learners. Face-to-face training must move to a predominantly online/self-paced/Virtual Instructor-Led Training (VILT)/blended mode that can be consumed remotely. Also, a long-term plan to engage remote learners with multi-pronged approaches to connect, reinforce, challenge, and nudge toward continuous learning must be drawn up.

My eBook lists 18 eLearning trends, highlighting their relevance in the changing workplace dynamics. I have grouped them as:

  1. Trends that are in the spotlight: “must-have” trends to offer remote learning
  2. Trends that help remote users learn quickly, apply learning effectively, and gain access to relevant content and Just-In-Time learning aids
  3. Trends that foster continuous learning
  4. Trends that help you deliver engaging, high-impact, and immersive Virtual Learning Experiences to remote learners
  5. Trends that help you assess the impact of remote training and aid you in maximizing the ROI

Here’s what Christopher Pappas, founder of eLearning Industry, has to say about my eBook:

This is not always possible of course, but with this eBook, it definitely becomes a little more probable. The eBook you are now reading really took me by surprise. The meticulous work, unique intuition, and sheer love for the industry that went into it make it easily one of the most important works in the niche of eLearning for 2020.
