Top 3 Workplace Learning Trends in 2018

Top 3 Workplace Learning Trends in 2018

The LinkedIn Learning Solutions team have just launched the 2018 Workplace Learning Report.

The team surveyed approximately 4,000 professionals globally on LinkedIn with the goal of providing a holistic view of modern workplace learning.

Here, I share the top three trends that have been identified.

Trend 1: The workforce agrees, training for soft skills is the #1 priority

Talent developers, executives and people managers agree that training for soft skills is the top priority for talent development teams.

Trend 2: Savvy talent developers are balancing today's challenges with tomorrow's opportunities

Our research shows that in 2018, talent developers are prioritizing the employee development needs of today. And while that is essential, executives and people managers are looking to talent developers to do more—specifically increase their focus on identifying industry trends to prevent internal skill gaps.

Trend 3: The rise of digital is transforming talent development

Talent developers are depending more on online learning solutions to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse, multi-generational workforce—and there's no turning back. Our survey shows that talent developers depend more on online learning solutions than ever before.
