Modernize workforce Learning & Development through microlearning
Pew Research Center
This year, more than four million Americans quit their jobs each month, ostensibly continuing the Great Resignation that started in 2021. However, what we’ve learned is that many people aren’t actually leaving the workforce. According to the Pew Research Center, 53 percent of those who quit their jobs in 2021 only switched their occupation or field. In other words, the Great Resignation was actually the Great Reshuffling.
Employees recognize now more than ever that they need new skills to take on different challenges. At the same time, organizations have to plug skill gaps that will inevitably prevent forward progress. Better learning and development programs address both of these goals. Unfortunately, many companies are coming up short in this area. People are leaving jobs in hopes of upskilling or reskilling for new opportunities. Yet, employers still aren’t delivering to their own detriment.
