“half of everything you know will be obsolete
                           in 18-24 months”
                              ~ Moore’s Law
10-15% Employee Turnover in IT
Imagine If we can train employees
without disrupting the working hours
        and on a low budget!
What’s Open Learning Initiative?

                  A continuous training
                 program that exposes
               new skills to employees
                             and rely on
                     collaboration, web
               resources and a limited
                                budget.
