Research from Brandon Hall Group found that course-centric learning lacks a connection with business and performance outcomes. While course-centric learning defines much of corporate learning today, this approach cannot keep up with the speed of change, nor can it provide adequate performance support. 

Organizations seeking to improve learner engagement to drive performance outcomes must address the following key issues:

• How do we develop a learning strategy that focuses on the learner?
• What do learners need from learning programs to be engaged and successful?
• What must be included in learning programs to ensure an effective experience?
• Which tools and technologies should organizations leverage as part of the learner experience?
