- How would you summarise the trends that are currently challenging companies’ training systems?
Jean-Roch Houllier. The first trend is the ubiquity of knowledge, from which results a kind of ‘uberisation’ of the world of education. Today, knowledge is everywhere. There are opportunities to soak up content all over the internet and not only there. This situation has a critical consequence for all institutions involved in the formal and traditional world of training. It raises the question of who ultimately holds knowledge and calls into question the knowledge holder. This necessarily leads to a repositioning in terms of the value proposition of our training systems in our companies, if we want to remain at the hub of training in the future.
The other trend is the rise of attitudes that are more opportunistic and, in a way, more consumerist on the part of our learners.
