Think of lifelong learning as the regular update of an artificial intelligence (AI). An AI is only as good as the data it is based on and the algorithms it uses. Just as an AI needs to be constantly updated to keep up with the latest information and technology, people also need to learn continuously to keep up with the ever-changing demands of the world of work. Numerous circumstances can contribute to the need for training, be it the introduction of new technologies, systems or changes to regulatory requirements or company guidelines.
But what does it mean to train employees in the long term so that the knowledge they have acquired does not just remain theoretical, but also finds its way into their daily work – thus countering the “use it or lose it” phenomenon?
The basics of our customized training concept
An example from our training series on requirements engineering
Sounds great, but what does it actually look like in practice?
Take trainers with extensive experience in the respective industry and combine this experience with internationally established requirements engineering standards. This combination results in a setting in which target groups can be professionally identified and addressed. Instead of a standard example project, a concrete project in the training environment is used as a topping in order to utilize synergies and lay the foundation for the transfer of theory into practice. This turns a standard seminar into a productive workshop with concretely applicable work results that can also be used in projects in the subsequent practical coaching. Results that also serve as input for standardization and are maintained sustainably in the sense of continuous improvement.
