3 Key L&D Trends of 2022 and the 1 Pitfall to Avoid

Join this masterclass webinar with L&D expert, Chairman of the Learning and Performance Institute Donald H. Taylor, for a deep dive into the results of this year’s Global Sentiment Survey.

The 2022 L&D Global Sentiment Survey asked the global HR and L&D community – “What will be hot in workplace learning in 2022?”

During this webinar, Donald will identify this year’s digital learning trends and what they mean for the future of workplace learning. Donald explains how these trends differ from region to region, which “hot topics” from the previous year are cooling down, and how the pandemic has impacted the trends we see within the L&D industry. 

More about the Global Sentiment Survey: 

The L&D Global Sentiment Survey takes the pulse of the L&D community world-wide, annually. The one-minute online poll asks L&D professionals internationally what they think will be hot in the following year.

The question is always the same format: “What will be hot in workplace L&D in [this year]?” Participants are asked to choose what they think will be hot, not what should be hot. Each person votes for 3 of 15 options, presented in random order. There is, in addition, an ‘Other’ option. Aggregated, and examined over time, these answers provide a fascinating look at trends in what people in L&D are thinking. The survey is published each year in February.

The annual L&D Global Sentiment Survey, now in its ninth year, attracts responses from thousands of respondents in over 80 countries.
