The internet is full of thousands of courses, ranging from free webinars to extensive online training courses. But even with so much choice, the question remains: do these standard courses really match what your employees need? Is the content relevant to the specific challenges and goals within your organisation?
We all know that a general approach never leads to the best results, especially when it comes to learning and development. How much more effective and valuable would it be if the course content was specifically tailored to your team's unique learning needs? In this blog, we dive into the importance of personalised learning paths in e-learning and we give practical tips on how to implement this in a cost-efficient way within your company.
Inside us previous blog we already discussed that customised e-learning has many advantages, such as:
But did you know that there are many more benefits to offering e-learning that uses personalised learning paths?
One of the lesser-known (but no less valuable) benefits of personalised learning paths is that they promote employees' ability to self-manage. Traditional learning environments often give employees little space to take matters into their own hands.
With personalised learning paths, correct who independence stimulated. Your employees can follow their learning journey at their own pace and based on their specific learning needs, motivating them to be proactive.
This contributes to a culture of continuous learning within your organisation - essential in a world that is constantly changing.
What makes learning new knowledge and skills even more valuable is establishing a direct connection with your company. This strengthens the connection with the organisation and also ensures that what the employee learns immediately “comes to life”. An effective method for this is immersive learning.
Immersive learning is a learning method that fully immerses employees in a simulated or interactive environment. This often uses technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR) or Mixed Reality (MR).
When employees learn at their own pace and based on their own interests and needs, they experience more space to discover new ideas and approaches. This leads to a work environment that encourages creative thinking and innovative solutions.
Companies that offer personalised learning paths often see an increase in the innovativeness and creativity of their employees, resulting in competitive advantages and growth!
Providing personalised learning paths in e-learning is a powerful way to promote diversity and inclusion within your organisation. By tailoring training courses that match different cultural backgrounds, norms and values, you create a learning environment where all employees feel recognised and respected. This goes beyond just cultural diversity; it also means making training accessible to employees with disabilities. This includes subtitles for hearing disabilities, visually accessible materials, and technologies such as screen reading software for people with visual disabilities. In addition, e-learning offers a unique opportunity to promote gender inclusiveness.
By developing gender-inclusive training courses that create awareness, you build a learning environment (and organisational culture!) where everyone, regardless of gender identity, feels safe and valued.
Usually, customisation also automatically means higher costs. But not for customised e-learning! Instead of wasting budget, time, and energy on general “one size fits all” training that isn't relevant to everyone, companies can use their training budget much more effectively by developing and offering only those learning experiences that meet the specific needs of their employees.
This ensures that every euro invested in e-learning has a maximum impact on both the individual and the organisation.
Sounds pretty good, right? Are you curious about what a customised e-learning with personalised learning paths looks like for your company or organisation? Contact us in the chat and we'd love to think along with you!
