Oh, what a year it has been in the training industry. This past year has brought remarkable change and innovation due to advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and other emerging technologies. Along with trying to understand and apply new tools for training and development, learning leaders were also focused on creating effective project plans, setting new hires up for success and overcoming common training challenges to improve performance.

Learning professionals have focused heavily on refining the skills and capabilities of leaders throughout their organization, as well as measuring and assessing the impact of their training programs. Building communities of practice and implementing social learning initiatives has allowed employees to connect and engage with their colleagues in new ways.
