To maximize that talent investment, the business and the professional must take to heart key insights from higher education\u2019s experience in online teaching for adults and from corporate trainings\u2019 best practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"preparing-your-workforce\">Preparing Your Workforce for Online Learning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 300px; float: right; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.hubspot.net\/hubfs\/3294842\/Online%20Working%202.png\" alt=\"Online Working 2\" width=\"300\">Technology is not the most important aspect of online learning. Sure, good technology and interconnectivity have a big impact on online learning, but one should never lose focus of the people who are learning. How do you position online learning to your team or employee? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inc.com\/larry-alton\/5-ways-to-motivate-employees-in-training.html\">Focus on the benefits to them and for the company<\/a>, according to Inc.com\u2019s Larry Alton. When the benefits are clear, you have a good foundation for real learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Four other areas to include as you position your company or team\u2019s employees for online learning include: provide motivation, create workspace, incentivize efforts, and schedule learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"provide-motivation\">Provide Motivation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For some, training is stressful and can be associated with embarrassment; these are feelings that lead to reduced engagement and less productivity. Therefore, when you set up training or classes for your company or team, consider how to motivate employees to fully participate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Communicate how <a href=\"https:\/\/trainingindustry.com\/articles\/performance-management\/4-ways-to-motivate-employees-to-embrace-training\/\">\u201c\u2026narrowing skill gaps is a sign of strength that demonstrates a high degree of self-awareness and willingness to improve<\/a>.\u201d Foster a company culture that embraces growth, curiosity, and drive; where training is the opportunity to safely try new things. The same mindset that embraces change in the form of training, can be leveraged to help the business in times of uncertainty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Studying for the PMP Exam?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-horizontal is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-1 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100 is-style-fill\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/projectmanagementacademy.net\/free-pmp-questions\" style=\"border-radius:2px;background-color:#366194\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PMP Practice Questions<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:8px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"create-workspace\">Create Workspace<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A great benefit of creating a productive and ergonomic space for your training is that it will be in place for your work from home efforts as well. If your company has ergonomic guidelines or support, be sure to share those links and communicate any resources to the employees completing online learning. When supporting a productive remote workspace, consider aspects such as monitors, keyboards, and technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keeping in mind that your employee\u2019s workspace may serve a dual purpose of the family kitchen table, there are some basic best practices that will help. The <a href=\"https:\/\/ehs.ncsu.edu\/health-safety\/occupational-safety\/ergonomics\/ergonomics-when-working-remotely\/\">Occupational Safety team at NCSU<\/a> provides <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ergocenter.ncsu.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2020\/03\/Working-from-Home-Tips.pdf\">tips for creating a safer work from home setting<\/a> including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.hubspot.net\/hubfs\/3294842\/Online%20Working%203.png\" alt=\"Online Working 3\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"incentivize-efforts\">Incentivize Efforts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Incentives can be powerful when used strategically. Rewards for finishing a class project first or signing up for the most classes do not benefit the employee or company. However, if you can connect successful application of new skills on the job to learning, that is a powerful opportunity for incentives. For example, finishing the Lean class project first should not be rewarded; demonstrating how applied Lean Six Sigma from class to save the company money should be rewarded. Also have a <a href=\"https:\/\/trainingindustry.com\/articles\/performance-management\/4-ways-to-motivate-employees-to-embrace-training\/\">variety of incentives<\/a> to reflect different achievements, such on-the-spot rewards, bonus vacation time, or recognition on work profile pages. The goal being to connect incentives to skill growth and application, not just class completion or attendance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"schedule-learning\">Schedule Learning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is important that training has dedicated time within employee schedules. Include learning and class in working hours to emphasize the importance of it; block off time on calendars to prevent other meetings from pushing it to the side. Also consider that incorporating training into the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inc.com\/larry-alton\/5-ways-to-motivate-employees-in-training.html\">normal workday will bring less resistance<\/a> and add to the convenience of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The aspect of scheduling learning is also found in higher education. The <a href=\"https:\/\/online.uc.edu\/balance-work-and-online-classes\/\">University of Cincinnati<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/sciences.ncsu.edu\/news\/tips-for-students-to-prepare-for-online-learning\/\">North Carolina State University,<\/a> for example recommend to their adult students to set a schedule and keep to a routine to balance work and school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Placing training events and learning time on work calendars is also a signal to others that professional development is valued and respected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"business-benefits\">Business Benefits to Online Learners<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As the COVID-19 pandemic is an evolving situation, companies must be flexible to survive. Recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.deloitte.com\/us\/en\/pages\/human-capital\/articles\/covid-19-workforce-strategies-for-post-covid-recovery.html\">Deloitte consulting research<\/a> suggests that workforce strategies for recovery include focusing on workforce well-being, maximizing workforce contributions to shifting priorities, and rethinking workforce experiences. Online learning can play a critical role in your company\u2019s workforce adaptation and recovery to ensure your have the needed skills and experience in-house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p style=\"font-size:25px\"><strong>Upcoming PMP Certification Training &#8211; Live &amp; Online Classes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\"><table class=\"table table-striped table-bordered table-responsive-sm font-md mt-5 mb-0 d-none d-md-table\"><tr><td>Name<\/td><td>Date<\/td><td>Place<\/td><td><\/td><\/tr><\/table>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The workforce is experiencing unprecedented change with stay-at-home orders and extended work-from-home environments.
