Overview
The Economist dedicated a January 2017 issue to Lifelong Learning, bringing to fore the need for everyone to be Lifelong Learners due to rapid changes in jobs and the skills required for them.
Lifelong Learning is here to stay. While individuals need to take responsibility to keep their capabilities up to date, organisations can support them by helping them create a mindset and skills for Lifelong Learning. L&D can be the architects by providing support and tools while being the advocate for Lifelong Learning.
In this webinar, we discuss if L&D currently advocates or has the mandate to support Lifelong Learning and how best they can achieve this.
Date & Time : Thur, 25th May 2017, 12 – 1 pm Sydney Time
We Discuss
- How important is being a lifelong learner for individuals? Who is responsible for it?
- What role is L&D playing in Lifelong Learning?
- How the current L&D offerings can be hopefully tweaked for Lifelong Learning?
- Do our organisations support Lifelong Learning? Is there a mandate? Is there a budget?
