In today’s digital era, time is the new money and that is why modern learners expect most information to be available anytime and anywhere. The overall digital transformation has proved to be a catalyst for how organizations approach towards learning and development. Modern workforce expect training to be available at the point of need as per their convenience of time and place. The ever-evolving expectations have added a new approach to training known as JIT (Just-in-Time) learning. Using a robust Learning Management System (LMS) for workplace training, this approach reduces the time invested on varied learning activities, leading to increased employee retention and workplace productivity.

Why is JIT Learning an Optimum Choice?

Today, majority of organizations adopt effective learning strategies that are tailored to the customized needs of diversified audiences. Unlike traditional classroom-based approach, JIT learning is imparted via robust LMSs which cater to the diverse learning needs. Let us discuss the key features that make this approach a profitable one:

  • Learners have full control on what type of courses they access, learn and adapt.
  • Courses are perfectly aligned with the preferred learning styles and preferences.
  • Ease to access courses anytime and from anywhere.

The blend of above mentioned features ensures reduction in training costs with increase in employee engagement, retention and workplace productivity. Different practices that are followed by organizations to make JIT more effective are as follows:

Deliver Bite-sized Content

When long-duration courses are divided as short nuggets, these become easier to digest and retain for longer. Enterprises prefer delivering the micro content to make it convenient for modern learners to access training modules of their choice and at their own pace.

Design Effective Content

If planning is done effectively, then the chances to improve the overall training experience are also increased. Instead of creating courses at random, everything should be planned to provide the right kind of information at the right time. For instance, if regulatory changes occur within a company, then an appropriate plan helps to deliver engaging training sessions just before the actual training begins.

Availability of Courses on Personalized Devices

With an increasing use of smart phones and tablets, it has become possible to impart learning on-the-go as per learners’ individual convenience. The effective utilization of mobile-enabled e-courses and efficient LMS allow users to undergo training at any point of time. For instance, sales employees access training on their mobile devices at the last minute to quickly review about the product and services they will offer to the customers.

 

Significance of QR Codes

Learners who access courses over their mobile devices can utilize the feature of QR codes. These codes can be scanned through mobile camera which selects the desired course. For instance, employees working in healthcare sector can scan the code for courses that provide training on different medical procedures.

In addition, there are several other benefits of JIT learning over traditional instructor-led approach. These include:

  • Now, newly hired employees do not have to wait for the next scheduled training class. They can simply access courses on their mobiles whenever they want, without any hassle of going anywhere.
  • JIT learning helps improving employee engagement as they are eager to learn something new via their personalized mobile devices.
  • It also helps mitigating risks associated with training, thereby leading to improved learning efficiency and learner retention.

With ever-evolving market conditions, the role of learning & development is continuously improving. Organizations from diverse industry domains are using cutting-edge LMSs to deliver highly impactful solutions and stay ahead of the curve.
