\n\tIf you’ve ever worked one-on-one with a tutor or instructor, you know the power of personalized learning. Whether you were learning anything from how to play a tricky combination of notes to perform a classic song or master new presentation techniques to nail a high-stakes client pitch, your learning journey is unique to your own abilities, interests, and areas for growth. And since the learning experience is tailor-made to your needs, the lessons resonate more deeply, getting you the results you want faster.<\/p>\n

\n\tPersonalized learner journeys go far beyond the classroom or training session. In fact, organizations have learned just how impactful they can be when employees sit in the driver’s seat of their own learning and development (L&D) experiences. Here are three key strategies organizations can implement to help employees choose their own learning journeys:<\/p>\n

\n\t1. Create the Learner Experience: Put People in the Driver’s Seat of Their Own Development<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n\tToday’s employees have high expectations for their organization’s learning management and development programs. And applying the flexibility of personalized learner journeys helps to cultivate the ideal learner experience, which is unique to each employee and their own specific goals. <\/p>\n

\n\tA personalized learning experience puts the onus on employees to seek out what information they need in their time of need. This helps to establish an organizational culture of continuous L&D, empowering employees to become proactive learners.<\/p>\n

\n\t2. Content and Format: Give Your People the Learning They Need, When They Need It<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n\tOffering learning content in the right format can make all the difference in supporting an employee’s personalized learning journey. To do this effectively, organizations must offer a blend of learning opportunities, including formal, informal, and experiential learning, among others.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe rise of microlearning, combined with the power of video and the convenience of mobile, means even the busiest, on-the-go workforce can find a moment of otherwise “dead time” to brush up on a skill, complete compliance training, or find an answer to an urgent question. <\/p>\n

\n\tMany employees who are low on free time thrive on in-the-moment learning to help them stay informed and up-to-date, especially if they work in a competitive industry or field. By making learning content easily searchable, it reduces the friction for participation and employees are more likely to take advantage of the available learning content.<\/p>\n

\n\t3. Development: Making the (Human) Connection Between Learning and Performance<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n\tIt’s critical to remember that learning in and of itself is not the outcome—success comes from putting the lessons learned into actions that drive performance. There must be a business reason that a learning program exists, driving employees to pursue that particular learning opportunity.<\/p>\n

\n\tTo create a goal-driven learning experience, organizations need to ensure that their people’s goals are aligned to organizational objectives. Starting with business goals and then working backward helps to create a learning environment enabled by content that facilitates goal achievement. According to the 2018 Brandon Hall Group Personalized Learning Survey, a strong majority<\/a> of high-performing organizations agreed that personalized learning:<\/p>\n
