Why Is Training Content Important?

The way we work has changed over the last couple of years, affecting both the work culture and the organizations that host it. It was found that 76% of millennials believe professional development opportunities are one of the most important aspects of company culture.
Employees want companies to invest in them just as much as they are invested in their role. This helps them to feel more valued.
Evidently, a successful employer-employee relationship depends on the contributions of both sides.

Emily Foote, VP of Customer Engagement for Bridge, said it best with her annual report on workplace loyalty, “They (millennials) aren’t satisfied with routine promotions or pay bumps; they want opportunities to learn, develop new skill sets and grow into leaders. “Employee engagement and loyalty are rewarded for companies that foster learning environments”.

So it’s safe to say that from a company’s perspective, training content definitely helps to improve their employee retention rate and solidify roles and responsibilities. It encourages employees to stay longer, move up in their roles or help in guiding new employees.
