FASTtalk : Mind the Gap: How to Respond to the Future of Work

Session Description

The old ways of providing training to employees, such as through performance support learning, are not sufficient to prepare today’s workforce, and more robust learning and development solutions are needed. Join this FastTalk to hear Theuns Botha and Jenn Henry of 2U, Inc. unpack insights from GetSmarter’s recent Future of Work research combined with their own shared experience and shed light on how the future of work is impacting the workplace, the trends that are being experienced and how these trends are creating gaps across the workplace. They will also discuss why upskilling and reskilling are so valuable in today’s changing workplace and what types of learning and development need to be offered to help bridge the current skills gap. Through data-backed solutions, this talk will offer you practical steps that will ensure your workforce thrives in an ever-changing, complex environment.
