To better prepare the newest additions to the workforce, colleges and universities are adapting their teaching styles to complement the evolving corporate education landscape. Employee development is radically different than it was even a few years ago, but higher education has been slow to catch up. Now, rather than labor-intensive, lengthy learning modules, education institutions have been shifting the focus to more bite-sized competencies and skills. “Businesses today have to be more agile and have to be able to pivot—access to content needs to be very rapid,” said Lori Bradley, executive vice president of global talent management at PVH Corp. “Priorities and jobs are changing more quickly, so we need an agile learning environment that anticipates what learning needs will be, and where we can quickly access them.” With the nearly instant access to knowledge and information, both companies and higher education are rethinking the way learning is accomplished. “Before, our only options were to send people to a training, sit in a course, and learn the material–whether from a university or a week-long certification,” said Shelly Holt, vice president of global learning for SAP. “Information today is pushed so quickly at people that the landscape has fundamentally changed.”
