The most effective corporate training should meet the learner at their point of need. The best learning platform in one that is available on demand and delivered in a variety of mediums that cater to the employees availability and time constraints.

Following I will share the three most popular learning platforms being used in today’s corporate environments.

Traditional Instruction/classroom-based training is currently used by about 32% of all organizations to teach one-third of their overall training. Positive aspects of this platform is that it is easy to deliver and maintain but it lacks a standardized learning experience and requires a dedicated space and teaching staff.

With On-Line training software and tools, instructors can deliver lectures, show videos, conduct break-out sessions, lead discussions, and observe learner performance. All Virtual sessions can be recorded and accessed for review at a later date. This platform eliminated the need for classroom space, can be accessed from multiple locations and is less costly in the long term..some of the now available tools include “eLearning or microlearning modules, games, assessments, learning activities, videos, and discussion boards”.

The Third is a blended learning approach. This platform combines classroom-based training and online learning into one curriculum. Bringing these two methods together can create a learning experience that captures the best of each method creating engagement a richer learning experience, one on one collaboration and buy-in during the training sessions.

Ultimately it is a leadership’s call as to what learning platform best fits the organizational structure and needs of the organization. Effectiveness from the cost and learning perspectives must be looked at carefully, specially as to how they fit within the organizational growth strategy.
