360Learning - We’re buying the wrong stuff
Learning methods such as eLearning, in-house development programs, and virtual workshops are certainly the go-to option for the majority of L&D teams. But here’s the problem: what we’re buying isn’t necessarily what’s actually working for learners.
Our research has found that despite online learning being the most commonly offered form of training, learners rated it the least effective method of training out of eight training types. And it’s a similar story for in-house development programs.
So, what should we be serving up instead? Well, peer learning comes out on top, followed by coaching and mentoring, and instructor-led training, delivered on the job. These findings point us to a golden opportunity to divert our efforts to these methods and address skills gaps to boost learner performance.
And while we’re talking about training, why not check out our resources on why an adaptable L&D mindset is critical and how to strengthen your culture through hiring and onboarding?

The L&D Mismatch: What We’re Buying vs What’s Actually Working (Based on Data from 3k People)
Are eLearning, virtual workshops, or MOOCs actually effective in helping learners at the point of need? These training formats are certainly the go-to option for the majority of L&D teams-but our new research suggests learners don’t rate these types of training. In this article, we compare data from the US, UK, France, and Germany to understand which types of learning work best and where L&D teams need to make a shift to offer better flow of work solutions.

So, how can L&D teams be there at the point of need? Read on to hear expert advice on how to provide learning when and where employees need it.
