Upskill with Purpose: Creating a Future-Ready Workforce
Add bookmark
The role of learning and development (L&D) in organizations is undergoing a fundamental transformation. As factors like technology, artificial intelligence (AI) and an ever-shifting economy reshape the business landscape, L&D leaders are no longer just providers of training—they are also strategic enablers of workforce agility and business growth. Organizations now look to L&D programs to drive rapid upskilling and reskilling, AI adoption and leadership development, all while demonstrating measurable business impact, including employee satisfaction and retention. A survey commissioned by D2L found that:
- Employer support for AI training does not match AI’s growing workplace importance
- Employees seek skills development but feel a disconnect with their employer training priorities
- Employee preferences for training and credentials may not align with traditional education models
- Interactive and flexible formats are key to employee engagement and success with learning
These findings point to a critical need for L&D strategies that are not only future-focused but also aligned with employee expectations and business goals. Download this whitepaper to explore how your organization can close the gap between AI’s promise and workforce preparedness.
