The Times They Are A-Changin’: The next generation of training teams
June 5, 2008
Like many things these days in corporate life, the needs and trends around training employees are changing. Gone are the days of traditional models and linear learning. Whereas we used to have curriculum designers, facilitators and measurement professionals, we now need graphic designers, technologists and programmers too. I predict that in the near term, training presentations the way we know them will no doubt be a thing of the past, meaning that overall training strategies need to shift, starting with the selection and recruitment process.
So the training teams of the future will be a configuration of a new and different set of skills and will require roles that look something like this…
► Curriculum Designers with learning diversity expertise
► Facilitators who can perform and teach at the same time
► Business Partners to provide content which is organizationally relevant
► Graphic Designers to create a higher quality interface for learners
► Programmers to meet training objectives online
► Web 2.0 Strategists to guide training decisions along the appropriate technological landscape
After that? My guess is that it is only a matter of time before Avatars are somehow delivering training.
