9 Must-have Tools for Modern Workplace Training

By Sagar Vairagkar | Digital Content Solutions | Comments are Closed | 11 October, 2021 | 0

Whether you are onboarding new hires, training your sales reps, providing on-the-job training, or upskilling your existing employees’ knowledge and skills, know that there are some tools that are essential for modern workforce training. The employee learning experience is as good as the training tools you have in your toolkit. In this article, we look at some of the top employee training tools that companies can leverage for effective training delivery.

Here are the 9 must-have tools for modern workplace training.

Learning management systems

A learning management system (LMS) is a software used to administer learning and development programs to one or more learners. The LMS is typically a cloud-based tool that allows users to authenticate themselves, register for the course, complete the course, and then take assessments. Compared to traditional training rooms, an LMS offers several advantages. First, learners can learn at their own pace and convenience with limited dependence on the instructor.

An LMS also includes communication and collaboration tools, enabling instructors, thought leaders, and subject matter experts to hold live sessions with the employees. The recordings of these sessions can be made available on the LMS, allowing learners to access them anytime. An LMS can also be used to design interactive eLearning content using a complete range of digital media tools.

Learning experience platforms

The learning experience platform (LXP) is used to impart experiential learning, making the whole experience fun and engaging, resulting in greater learning outcomes. An LXP combines a wealth of learning assets and delivers them using AI across all digital touchpoints, including the mobile and web.

 It makes data the focal point of all organizational activities, enabling businesses to manage digital disruptions in the workplace more effectively. LXPs take conventional learning to the next level to deliver personalized learning experiences to learners. 

Video training tools

Videos are one of the most potent tools for online course delivery. The audio-visual medium helps attract and retain attention, allowing learners to immerse themselves in the course content. 

However, no matter how self-directed the content is, learners will always benefit from live support from SMEs. But this becomes extremely difficult when employees work from remote locations, have varying schedules, or work across geographies. Instead of flying the instructor to different venues or gathering employees under one roof, a better and more cost-effective option is to leverage video conferencing tools. 

This training tool allows instructors to live-stream their lessons via an LMS or a content delivery platform. Video-based tools, therefore, enable learners to see the instructor and virtually participate in discussions similar to what they would do in a traditional classroom.

Content creation tools

Content creation tools help to create effective eLearning content using templates that can be customized to your unique requirements. A content creation software enables you to embed various multimedia content to the eLearning module, such as videos, images, audios, etc. Apart from creating content that provides an immersive and engaging learning experience, you can also record your screen for a more interactive training session. 

Content management tools 

Content management tools allow you to organize your content and provide authorized access to your workforce. These tools not only enable you to upload and organize content but also edit them as and when required. Learners can organize their content on virtual bookshelves and share it with their peers for discussion.

Communication tools

One of the main benefits of traditional classroom teaching is the opportunity for direct communication between the teacher and the learner. In the online environment, communication is facilitated through communication tools. These tools serve several purposes. For instance, instructional design teams, project managers, and SMEs need communication tools to interact, collaborate, and share experiences and knowledge in order to create high-quality content on time. 

Instructors need these tools to communicate with their learners in real-time in an online environment. Besides, some of these tools allow employees to post their queries to a larger audience. Communication tools thus enable a connection between the instructor and employees, making learning a more relevant experience.

Social platforms

People usually spend a lot of time on social media platforms. By leveraging this preference for the platforms, course designers and administrators can include social sharing buttons and discussion forums to improve the interaction between the learners and open up the conversation to the external communities.

Conclusion

They say a good craftsperson is as good as his tools. The same holds true for online training. As online training gains ground and modern learning practices make its presence felt, the tools that you use to create and deliver your online training programs can make a big difference.

There is no time to start like now – consider the above training tools for the modern workplace to create personalized training programs.
