Yesterday, I had the opportunity to present the growing role of AI in HR and L&D. In my session, I mentioned several developments in the field of AI and explored ways it is assisting L&D professionals in developing better, easier-to-learn, and more engaging learning material. One of the key points I discussed was how tools like Valamis can quickly generate new lessons and translate them into multiple languages, enabling learners to access content in their native language. This is important because research, such as the study "Translanguaging in Adult Basic Education Worldwide" by Anna Kaiper-Marquez (2023), demonstrates how using both native and target languages can enhance understanding and engagement. When learners have access to content in their own language, they are better able to grasp new concepts and connect with the material. AI presents opportunities to make learning material more accessible and suited to the many demands of the modern workforce as we continue to advance in the learning and development field. By utilizing AI to produce and translate educational content, we can enhance everyone's educational experience. I'm interested to see how AI will continue to influence L&D in the future. #LearningAndDevelopment #AI #FutureOfLearning #ContentCreation #InclusiveLearning #HR #Innovation #learning

No time for learning? For Software Dev it's non-negotiable 👩💻 Software teams are constantly learning and adapting to new tech and challenges. As a software provider ourselves, we get it. Rapid innovation and safety requirements mean the stakes are high, so we’re hyper-aware that it's daily learning and training that ensures people get ahead and stay there! The real shift? It’s moving from focusing on roles to focusing on skills. Think about it: building the right skills keeps your team sharp, adaptable, and future-ready. And it’s not just a productivity thing, it’s the only way to attract and keep top talent. When people have solid learning opportunities, they’re not just more skilled but more likely to stick around.

Doing more with less in L&D: Holiday survival tips for tight budgets December is here, bringing festive cheer—and the year-end crunch. Budgets are tight, planning for the new year is in full swing, and the hustle and bustle of the season is upon us. But don’t worry; we’ve got your L&D holiday toolkit ready to help you work smarter, not harder! Here are 7 tips to keep your L&D strategy merry and bright, even on a tight budget: 1️⃣ Focus on results, not just training: Align programs with business challenges and aim for measurable outcomes. Think of it as giving the gift of impact—results that make stakeholders smile. 2️⃣ Collaborate with key stakeholders: ‘Tis the season to build strong connections. Get close to decision-makers, understand their holiday (and year-end) goals, and position L&D as the perfect solution to wrap up the year successfully. 3️⃣ Outsource for efficiency: Even Santa has elves! To save time and resources, consider external providers for specific tasks. A well-placed helper can lighten your load and deliver results. 4️⃣ Automate and delegate: Unwrap the power of technology! Use automation for compliance, onboarding, and other repetitive tasks. It frees your team to focus on what truly matters—strategic, high-value work. 5️⃣ Invest in retention: As the workload piles on during the holiday rush, keep morale up by investing in meaningful skill-building programs. A little support goes a long way in retaining talent during stressful times. 6️⃣ Stay visible and relevant: Don’t let stakeholders wonder if L&D has taken a holiday! Run short, impactful sessions, share results, and regularly connect with decision-makers to highlight your contributions. Visibility is your holiday stocking stuffer: small but valuable. 7️⃣ Prove it’s all worth it: As budgets for 2025 are reviewed, show off your ROI and COI (Cost of Inaction). Use data to demonstrate how you’re driving results, making L&D an essential part of the new year’s plan. 🌟 A final thought for December: The end-of-year crunch can feel like a marathon, but it’s also an opportunity to shine. The work you do now sets the stage for success in the new year. Remember to prioritize sustainability, after all, burnout doesn’t pair well with eggnog or your 2025 goals. Cheers to wrapping up the year with impact, joy, and resilience! 🎁
