Gen-NOW!
Continuing from where we left off about the younger generation’s quest to be counted, the omnipresent possibilities of learning is also motivated by the enabler that made it possible. This is none other than the advancement of tech infrastructure, tools, platforms and the proliferation of gadgetries that permit this to take place. Another is the lower cost of entry via speedy connectivities such as 5G and 6G on mobile devices which will only gain higher transfer speeds with time.
Of importance are the collaborative tools that have conveniently embedded real time or anytime learning components, contributing to the advocacy for continuous learning. This was especially obvious in the training industry when the global lockdown induced by Covid-19 thrusted sites like Udemy, Coursera, Slideshare, Teachable and more under the spotlight. Together with the expandable bandwidth, it has birthed an environment that is ultra-conducive for training to take place at any time, anywhere and for that matter, for any purpose and industry.
The Necessity of Continuous Learning
But although the programmes offered are as comprehensive (lifelong) and nimble (like plug and play) for the dynamic market settings of the 21st century, a common dilemma persists about the pros and cons of training. This is especially prevalent among the SMEs where they fear investing because employees will one day leave their companies. But what many fail to recognise is that employees often leave because there is no investment in their ongoing upskilling or reskilling.
To frame it in another way, today’s volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) world compels continuous learning as a necessity, no longer optional. As such at CXL Group’s LDC solutions are designed to equip individuals with the resilience and skills needed to thrive in an ever-changing landscape where the former is especially in hot demand due to the demographic characteristics of the workforce of this era.
Insofar that we’ve seen, the strategic purpose of learning is certainly plentiful and rewarding but what about the downside risks of not embracing it?
“When you stop learning or decline to move with the times, the risk is remaining stagnant in a fast changing world. You become less relevant, your “intelligence” stops and you become less competitive as a consequence,” concludes Erin, “and that’s not where every company wants to be.”
