What digital means for the next generation of corporate academies.
A new phase is unfolding where organizations must grapple with tools and platforms that facilitate knowledge sharing and employee interactions on an almost limitless scale, challenging -and sometimes appearing to sweep away - the old brick-and-mortar model.

Digitization offers a huge opportunity to transform learning and address some of its current deficiencies, though it bears noting that digital learning tools are not new. What is new - and disruptively so - is the fact that the content of learning is moving to the cloud, becoming accessible across multiple devices and teaching environments and often being generated, shared, and continually updated by users themselves.
L&D and HR personnel must become less the authors of what gets taught in digital formats and more the facilitators who ensure that employee-generated content can be seamlessly dispersed throughout the company.
