Workplace Learning in 10 Years

This month it's time for a truly BIG question. The inspiration for this question comes from the recent posts discussing the future of workplace learning:

Jay Cross and Harold Jarche - Future of the Training Department
Jay Cross - eLearning is not the Answer
Tony Karrer - Corporate Training
Dave Wilkins - The Future of Training Started Yesterday


Thus, for March 2009 Big Question is:


Workplace Learning in
10 Years?


If you peer inside an organization in 10 years time and you look at how workplace learning is being supported by that organization, what will you see? What will the mix of Push vs. Pull Learning; Formal vs. Informal supported by the organization? Are there training departments? What are they doing? How big are they as compared to today? What new departments will be responsible for parts of workplace learning? What will current members of training departments be doing in 10 years?

How to Respond:

Option 1 - Simply put your thoughts in a comment below. This may be hard given the complexity of the topic.

Option 2 -

Step 1 - Post in your blog (please link to this post).
Step 2 - Put a comment in this blog with an HTML ready link that I can simply copy and paste (an HTML anchor tag). I will only copy and past, thus, I would also recommend you include your NAME immediately before your link. So, it should look like:

Tony Karrer - e-Learning 2.0

or you could also include your blog name with something like:

Tony Karrer - e-Learning 2.0 : eLearningTechnology

Harold Jarche, Clark Quinn, and I chewed on The Big Question at this morning's togetherLearn coordination meeting. I grabbed the conversation with iChat and posted it to YouTube.

Lorretta J Davis . Too many WLPs seem unwilling to explore and transition to new learning delivery systems. Are we afraid that we will not be needed?
