The evolution of technology is redefining the way we learn and work. Artificial intelligence (AI), virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and other emerging technologies are unlocking new possibilities for corporate training — but they also present unique challenges for learning leaders. How can learning and development (L&D) leaders harness these innovations effectively while keeping learning human-centered and aligned with business goals?
In this panel discussion, experienced learning leaders will share their firsthand experience with digital transformation in L&D. They’ll explore how to build resilient, tech-savvy learning cultures that embrace innovation while maintaining the human element of training. Panelists will also discuss the risks and rewards of AI-driven learning, the role of immersive technologies in skill development and strategies for ensuring L&D initiatives remain agile and effective as technology continues to advance.
Attendees will walk away with practical strategies for:
- Integrating AI, VR and AR into training programs without overwhelming learners.
- Ensuring new technologies enhance (rather than replace) the human touch in learning.
- Overcoming barriers to adoption, from budget constraints to stakeholder buy-in.
- Fostering a culture of continuous learning and adaptability within their organizations.
