201 — COVID-19 and changing approach to L&D


Listen Later

In the past few months, many organisations have completely changed their approach to L&D because of the COVID-19 situation. But to what extent were these changes already in the pipeline? What has worked and what hasn't? And how long-lasting will these changes be?

This week, Alan Brown, Learning and Development Consultant at Standard Life Aberdeen, joins Nicola Boyle and Owen Ferguson to share his team's experiences.

We discuss:

  • How Standard Life Aberdeen moved their global L&D offering to virtual
  • How to combat the challenges and measure the success of switching to virtual
  • How permanent this transition to virtual will be
