Workforce re-skilling and upskilling have become hot subjects of discussion in both academia and business. The digitization of work and artificial intelligence, often known as the Fourth Industrial Revolution, is driving the focus on skills, which has escalated due to the COVID-19 pandemic. According to the World Economic Forum, one billion jobs, nearly one-third of all jobs today, will undergo transformation with 133 million new jobs created to match future demand. This transformation is impossible to achieve without the use of workforce re-skilling and upskilling tools.

While skilling is a hot topic, many human resource executives are unsure how to adopt and enforce a successful skilling strategy. According to PwC’s 2020 Annual Worldwide CEO Survey, only 17% of US CEOs and 30% of global CEOs thought their upskilling initiatives helped speed up digital transformation. Where do the chasms exist?

We’ve noticed that the world of adult learning is rapidly changing as organizations attempt to upskill and reskill their workforces. As a result, businesses may shape their reskilling and upskilling programs based on obsolete information and fallacies. Let’s debunk some of these myths for you.

7 Myths About Workforce Re-skilling (and the Truths!)
Myth #1: Training programs are met with skepticism by employees

Employers are hesitant to implement workforce re-skilling programs because they believe it will not be worth the cost of employees unwilling to participate. This myth, however, is far from the truth. According to RiseSmart’s worldwide skilling survey, 55 percent of employees desire to learn new skills or refresh current ones. Around 94 percent of employees who participated in skilling projects in 2020 said they put their new or refreshed talents to use in a meaningful way, either fully or partially.

E-LEARNING RETENTION STRATEGIES THAT WILL IMPROVE YOUR COMPANY TRAINING

The eLearning goals of organizations are to increase value and reduce cost. Learners forget most of what they learn within the first 48 hours of learning. But, there is a pattern to it. They may forget the concepts taught, but they will remember certain nuggets of information and examples. That pattern must be gauged while designing eLearning training solutions. It is important to ensure that learners retain the knowledge they learned so that they can apply it at work. Here are the top 5 best retention strategies that you can apply to your design.
