The learning and development field, born out of the Industrial Revolution to enhance factory productivity and standardize work, has unexpectedly grown into a $391 billion industry, and one of the fastest growing fields in the past decade. Of course, it didn’t start out as L&D. In fact, that term wasn’t formalized until almost 150 years after the Industrial Revolution. For an entire generation, the L&D task within an organization was specific: create and deliver one-and-done training programs.

Although it was slow to start, the L&D field has more career opportunities than ever before.
