Summary:This book explores today's workplace learning and will empower you to customize learning for your workforce. Since the boom of e-learning, informal learning, and social learning, the learning environment landscape has changed dramatically and now offers a wide array of options for supporting knowledge and skill development at work. Lombardozzi describes practical ways to customize learning experiences by creating a curated approach to skills development - one that features informal and social learning, developmental activities, experiential learning, as well as formal training. It is filled with useful examples, resources, and suggested learning environment blueprints to help you continue to be successful in a field that is forever changing. You will learn to: design a learning environment that supports learning and performance; deliver more focused and impactful solutions to learning needs; scaffold self-directed and social learning. --
