There are three key areas that technology
training must address:
• Employee development: Employees demo-
nstrate greater engagement and a strong
workplace culture when learning opportunities
are available.
• Taking on new technology: Organizations
need education to support business value
realization in addition to enabling successful
go-live strategies.
• Long-term learning management: Today’s
rapid pace of change has led to the need to
quickly access the exact content learners need,
