Enterprise Learning Strategies Conference
New York, New York, USA, February 8-9, 2007
Enterprise Learning is concerned primarily with developing a set of generic, transferable enterprise skills that enable people to thrive in an uncertain world of work. Enterprise capability can be developed through a focus on personalized skills development and creating a more skills-based learning environment. Enterprise learning is a differentiator for organizations seeking to attract, develop, and retain top talent. Learning is also recognized as a branding tool to further corporate pride, loyalty, to increase visibility and identity of the organization, to facilitate employee engagement, and motivation, and to equip human capital with the ongoing need for continuous learning and competency development. As organizations recognize they do not have core competencies, training outsourcing is expanding and providing cost effective solutions as training demands increase.
