               Digital Innovation Shaping the Future of Learning and Development

               The digital era is changing our understanding of doing business, of learning and development in a fundamental way  – and
               with unrivalled speed. The function of learning and development is inevitably undergoing a transformation. However, many
               companies and individuals hesitate to acknowledge the depth and impact of current mutation. With today’s digital technology,
               by providing agile on-demand and just-in-time learning that meets specific skill set needs, is evermore making it possible for
               people to access learning contents at a much faster, more efficient and cost effective rate than ever before. The emergence
               of new technologies has also led to more innovative forms of learning experience.

               Many previously unimaginable learning approaches and solutions are all now possible. Innovative learning technologies (like   Wednesday, 17 May
               VR, AR, IoT and machine-learning) offer new channels for organisations to provide opportunities for employee development
               without the need to spend time and resources hosting formal training sessions. The ability to collect data is also providing
               intelligence and insights into the learning process, cloud computing is enabling people from opposite corners of the world
               to learn together, at the same time, with mobile devices offering even more choices on how, when and where they do it. All
               of which means, the way we learn and work has a multitude of potential in which to be enhanced. For these, digital learning
               innovation is taking the lead with a higher rate of engagement and distinctiveness.
               Under recent advances in technology and communications, it has finally broken the so-called richness/reach trade-off -
               meaning rich learning experiences can be achieved, irrespective of where the instructors and learners are located. In this
               presentation, the speaker will quote from his previous work to illustrate how learning moments can be enabled anytime,
               anywhere by integrating learning innovation and digital technology, and no limit to what can be taught using digital learning.
               This is driving change in learning and development but, more importantly, smart organisations are seizing the opportunity to
               not just react, but to shape their learning and development approach to boost business innovation and growth.
