“There is a place for face-to-face training in the new normal, but in the past it was dominant, now it is just one of many different learning techniques available.”
Passion for learning
Anne’s passion and belief in life long learning was clearly evident during the webinar. During the session Anne discussed the move to digital learning and the use of Artificial Intelligence. However, Anne was also quick to impart that looking after the learner and understanding their requirements is critical to success and positive mental health.
Loss of personal interaction was also explored during the session. Anne explained that where remote learning really works is when the interaction is replicated to encourage networking.
