Outlines different learning methods and what to consider when choosing between them
Any method of workplace learning must support individuals, teams or the organisation as a whole to build capability and drive performance. As working environments become more complex, greater agility is required in responding to learning needs. It’s more important than ever to apply the breadth of different learning methods available.
This factsheet defines 'learning', 'training' and 'development' and examines the main factors to consider when choosing between learning methods. It gives an overview of the various types, from workplace-based learning, like on-the-job training and in-house development programmes, to externally-based learning, such as formal qualifications. It also looks at blended approaches to learning.
