Helping Your Team Learn Remotely
COVID has changed the way we work. As more workplaces adopt hybrid or even entirely virtual work schedules, it’s time to consider the training ramifications. Teaching and training your employees online must be approached differently than in-person processes. Online training can help everyone from new hires to long-term employees looking to upskill.
Learning Online vs. In-Person
At first, it can feel daunting to compete with in-person training. In-person training offers more hands-on experience and real face-to-face interactions. But learning online has its advantages, too. Virtual trainings offer more variety in their programs and are much more flexible. They’re also usually less expensive.
For some employers who work entirely remotely, online training is the only option. However, even if your workplace is hybrid, training and upskilling employees online can be a strategic option that leaves your limited time in the office available for important meetings. If you take the time to learn the correct approach to online learning, there’s no reason your employees can’t be trained, onboarded, or upskilled from home.
