From video streaming to PowerPoints, technology has been a crucial part of successful learning experiences. In our world of fast-paced research and fast-growing employee rosters, technology is more central than ever to building a training program that makes managers' lives easier, ensures compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations, and protects employees as they perform their daily jobs.
Tech tools such as a Learning Management System (LMS) can centralize training hosting and recordkeeping to reduce logistical hurdles when employees are spread across time zones or working remotely. E-learning can help you step outside the box of PowerPoint-based lectures and develop interactive trainings that will stick in learners' minds long after the session ends. Educational frameworks like Universal Design for Learning (UDL) leverage technology to help your training be as equitable and inclusive as possible. Skillful application of technology can transform a simple collection of courses into an engaging, trackable training program.
