Digital Learning Day serves as a reminder of the transformative power that technology holds in today’s dynamic tech landscape, impacting learning significantly. A proficient workforce in technology not only enables swifter and more adept responses to dynamic shifts in business landscapes and evolving customer expectations but also serves as a cornerstone in providing companies with a competitive advantage.
To underscore the importance of digital learning in today’s world, individuals must recognize the need to stay up-to-date with evolving trends and strategize their learning to ensure career longevity.
Nina Nair, SVP & HRD Head, India and Americas, opines that the traditional boundaries of learning are being shattered, paving the way for a new era of knowledge acquisition and dissemination. “Digital Learning Day celebrates this paradigm shift, embracing innovation in technology as the cornerstone of modern education, transcending geographical constraints and socioeconomic barriers. Forward-thinking organizations are therefore investing in employee training programs that leverage adaptable, tech-infused learning environments. By embracing digital learning platforms, employees can exponentially raise their level of expertise and ensure swift ROI. Technology also supports learning to be multidimensional, immediate, and continuous.”
After reaching a certain stage in her Human Resources (HR) career, Kamala Nagaraj began contemplating the importance of refining her skills to explore new opportunities. Through extensive research, she chose to enroll in the PGCHRM program offered by XLRI in 2011. This course, she says, helped her better her career and showed her ways to work with an engaged workforce. “The PGCHRM course offered by XLRI was a pioneering initiative launched in collaboration with Reliance, marking a significant advancement in a time when technology was not as prevalent. The program proved invaluable in honing my analytical and logical abilities, equipping me with the necessary tools to drive strategic initiatives in specialized areas. I delved deep into core subjects such as labor law, compensation and benefits, labor relations, and collective bargaining, under the mentorship of industry experts. Through exposure to real-world case studies and continual coaching, I have gained the confidence to navigate various organizational challenges.
I am now adept at implementing interventions that not only enhance cost-effectiveness and compliance but also foster a culture of employee satisfaction through improved compensation and benefits. This, in turn, contributes to lower attrition rates and a more engaged workforce.
Today we are blessed with better opportunities, and accessibility to courses is no longer in question. There are numerous learning avenues, offering myriad growth opportunities. I, once again, emphasize that there is a crucial need to constantly sharpen your skills, and digital is the way to go.”
