Creating a Stronger Skills Connection - How Enterprise, Employees, and Higher Education Can Act Today to Close the Skills Gap
Almost 40 percent of American employers say they cannot find people with the skills they need even for entry-level jobs, and they admit that only 50 percent of new recruits have the skills needed for their new roles. 1 Another 60 percent of employers complain of lack of preparation2 and only 42.5 3 percent feel that new hires show the required professionalism and work ethic. Yet, 89.4 percent of new graduates feel they are work-ready.
When it comes to work readiness, there is a growing disconnect between the views of employers, educators, and post-secondary graduates entering the workforce. There is no longer just a skills gap. It is an ever-widening chasm.
The half-life of skills is rapidly falling, and nearly half of business leaders surveyed today cite the upheaval in learning and careers as an urgent problem.4 Furthermore, as intelligent systems and machines reshape the world of work, tomorrow’s employees will need to learn entirely new skills for entirely new jobs. So while the skills crisis is significant today, an even greater crisis looms. Employers need to understand that if they are to solve the current and future skills gap, the time for action is now.

Crisis Management: Communication Strategies for Navigating Times of Change & Uncertainty
You've probably heard the phrase, "The only certainty is change." We've all experienced change in some way, and organizations are no different.
Organizational change can come in a number of ways, whether in the form of leadership turnover, mergers or acquisitions, the introduction of new technology, natural disasters, or downsizing, just to name a few!
Change isn't necessarily a bad thing, but without the right planning and communication, it can leave organizations reeling. Poor planning can lead to loss of revenue, loss of clients, increased turnover, decreased engagement, or public relations disasters.
Part of planning for change should include a communication strategy. It's important to identify your stakeholders and address their questions or concerns before, during, and after the change. A lack of transparency can lead to the spread of false information, which can cause employees to leave or become disengaged in their work. By communicating honestly and openly, you can decrease their distress and empower them to face the future with confidence.
In today's day and age, it's not a question of if your organization will experience change, it's a question of when. By taking a proactive approach to change management with proper planning, your organization can find success in times of change!
In this eBook, you'll learn:
The four Rs of change management
Prompts for practicing a change communication strategy
Action items for each of the phases of change

Overcoming the Top 5 Challenges to Training with Video
Will this be recorded?"
It might just be the most commonly asked question at the start of virtually every training event. And the good news is that nowadays, you can almost always answer,
"Yes." Great. But then what?
According to a Wainhouse Research study, 87 percent of employees1 agree that having access to recorded training classes, webinars, and other events makes it easier to revisit crucial information when it's needed most.
Today, recording training sessions is quickly becoming standard practice. And the benefits are well known. Among the many positives, video helps learning and development (L&D) teams provide employees with a comprehensive resource to reference after the training ends, and also provides employees unable to attend with access to the information on-demand.
But good intentions too often fall short once the training session ends and the recording stops. For all its benefits, video also presents challenges when it comes to storing, sharing, and even playing recordings. Left unsolved, those shortcomings make video content burdensome for employees simply looking for quick information that helps them perform their jobs.
Fortunately, there is a solution. A video content management system (or video CMS) solves the most common problems of managing and sharing video.
In this paper, we'll review the five biggest challenges organizations face when using video to support corporate learning. Then we'll examine how a video content management system helps overcome those challenges to better enable video-based learning.
