The impossible dream: building a strategy for informal learning
We know people learn at work all the time – regardless of the involvement of their L&D department. If you think managing informal learning is a case of corporate cat herding, then you’re probably right. But that doesn’t mean you can’t create the conditions in which informal learning might be directed towards organisational improvement, team success and enhanced individual capability.
In this interactive session you’ll discover:
• What needs to be in your L&D strategy to enable informal learning to play a role;
• How to create the conditions for purposeful enquiry within your organisation, and
• How formal L&D approaches can foster informal learning (spoiler alert: there is no quick fix!)
Robin Hoyle is a writer and consultant. His 30 year career in L&D has included working in private, public and voluntary sectors. He has designed award winning e-learning programmes, built collaborative Learning Management Systems, set up communities of practice and delivered courses across the globe. He is the Chair of the World of Learning Conference, a TrainingZone columnist, contributor to Learning Now TV, Fellow of the LPI and author of two books published by Kogan Page - Complete Training: from recruitment to retirement and Informal Learning in Organizations: how to create a continuous learning culture.
