Knowledge, Learning, And Work Unite!

Formal And Informal Learning Help Workers Do Their Jobs

This is the 10th document in the "Information Workplace" series.

with Matthew Brown, Shelby Semmes

Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

A new generation of learning is here. Today, employees are working in a very fast-paced environment. They need learning that is immediate, relevant, and in the context of their work. The course approach — made up of multiple, sequential half-hour lessons — won't do the job alone. To get their jobs done, new computer-savvy workers expect the following essential components: short learning segments available on a variety of devices; more opportunities to collaborate with peers and get answers from experts; and high-quality data search engines.
