The BenchPrep team attended and exhibited at the Training Conference & Expo 2020 in Orlando last week. This conference was nothing short of amazing for us as we had many insightful conversations, learned a lot about the current challenges within the training industry, and soaked up some sun (can you blame us? We’re from Chicago!)

Training activities are continuing to undergo significant re-evaluation and overhauling by L&D departments. Most organizations are shifting in-person trainings to digital learning platforms, but going from one extreme to the other can lead to uncertain outcomes. The challenge of balancing how to introduce digital components into a non-digital curriculum will be the most critical ingredient to developing an effective and efficient program.

When it comes to training their professionals, many global organizations are realizing that one size fits none. How can organizations develop learning programs that meet learners where they are in their learning journey, align with their unique learning styles, and empower them to succeed not only in the course but also in their career?

There are many advantages to investing in online learning solutions. That's probably why almost half of Fortune 500 companies have adopted eLearning solutions. These solutions can make ongoing employee education both affordable and effective. With a corporate eLearning solution, your workforce can improve efficiencies.

As industries constantly adapt to new technologies and research, today’s professionals need to commit to lifelong learning to keep up. By brushing up regularly on their skills, employees can benefit from better career opportunities and learning power, while their employers sharpen their own competitive edge.

Faced with high quotas in an ever-changing buying environment, sales professionals are constantly juggling their time between selling and training. On top of their own time constraints, a recent study shows that four out of five companies agree that they are not able to train as many salespeople as they’d like on the skills their employees need. Lack of adequate training leads executives and managers to worry about knowledge gaps and their long-term impact on growth. In an effort to keep sales teams agile and competitive, sales organizations are searching for ways to improve their learning programs fast.
