How AI Can Transform Employee Training
If you are a leader in your organization, AI can be used in training employees by reducing the need for face-to-face interaction and increasing the speed of development.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has made its way into the workplace. According to a recent study by IBM, AI is being used at least as much for human resources management and training purposes as it is for general business intelligence. While most companies are focusing on using AI to gain competitive advantage by directing employee tasks towards high-value activities, they are not yet leveraging the potential of deploying AI in the area of employee training.
Expectations from employees are at an all-time high, in terms of skills, knowledge, performance, and output. And, with the need of the hour being “doing more with less,” and as technology takes away the menial tasks, every employee today is expected to offer greater value to the organization. As a result, it is absolutely crucial for employees to feel comfortable and connected with the organization in terms of both values and objectives. And, this means greater engagement. Each employee must be engaged in the workplace to perform better. This is precisely where AI learning can offer great value.
AI knowledge with employee training platforms provides greater automation, personalization, data insights, use cases and long-term sustainability than ever before. AI will bring greater insights from the substantial amount of employee data and will augment it with expert analysis.
In an age where constant digital disruptions are rapidly widening the skills gaps, AI stands to offer many benefits in the reskilling and upskilling of employees. Organizations need to look to AI to not only identify the skill gaps created by digital proliferation but also to help close them by recommending required skilling courses and programs to employees. For organizations, this means a future-ready workforce, while for employees it is a great opportunity to further their careers and professional development, and stay relevant in the years to come.
With Artificial Intelligence, professionals can get a better understanding of modern learner behavior and help develop learning pathways to improve the learning experience. Using such predictive analytics, organizations can further develop smarter learning content, one that is intuitive as well as responsive to the learners’ learning journey. AI will undoubtedly transform how content gets delivered while fostering knowledge retention.
With AI-powered learning tools and solutions deployed in the workplace, employees and L&D alike can reap the benefits of automated, personalized, intuitive and data-based learning modes, thus fostering continuous learning across the organization. AI-powered learning tools are sure to empower L&D with sustainable training programs to maximize employee performance throughout the employees’ careers while helping organizations hit the mark on its mission, objectives, and ROI.
