Elk jaar publiceert de American Society for Training and Development (ASTD) over de stand van zaken op het gebied van opleiden en ontwikkelen binnen organisaties. In de recent verschenen State of the Industry in Leading Enterprises concludeert de ASTD dat organisaties, die de afgelopen jaren hebben geïnvesteerd in (t)e-learning, hier de vruchten van plukken.
Organizations’ investments from previous years in learning technologies are now paying off. E-learning has reached a high level of sophistication, both in terms of instructional development and the effective management of resources. Many organizations with high-performing learning functions are able to attribute clear cost savings, efficiency gains in the learning function, increased content reuse, and decreased costs of learning development and delivery to successful technology investments.
Het gaat daarbij vaak om leerarangementen waarbij (t)e-learning wordt gecombineerd met face-to-face leersituaties (blended learning).
De ASTD constateert overigens ook dat leren steeds vaker buiten de traditionele ‘klaslokalen’ plaats vindt:
Workplace learning and performance professionals who assume that traditional approaches will work indefinitely in this shifting landscape could find themselves unprepared to keep pace, let alone lead others in new directions.
