What prescriptive AI can do for L&D

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the field of learning and development is transforming the way we access and consume educational content. One area where AI is making a particularly significant impact is in helping managers to understand what is needed when developing employees after a training course.

Traditionally, managers have relied on their own experience and judgment to determine what actions are needed to support employee development after a training course. This approach can be effective, but it can also be time-consuming and subjective, and it may not always provide a comprehensive picture of what is needed to support employee development.

By leveraging the power of prescriptive AI, managers can gain deeper insights into the actions that are most likely to support employee development after a training course. Prescriptive AI algorithms are able to analyze data on employee performance, learning styles, and other factors, and provide recommendations on the actions that are most likely to support employee development. This can include suggestions on how to provide additional training, support, or resources to employees, as well as recommendations on how to tailor the learning experience to individual needs and preferences.

Additionally, prescriptive AI can also provide insights into the most effective learning methods and techniques, allowing managers to design more effective development plans for their employees. For example, an AI algorithm may be able to identify the types of training materials and activities that are most likely to engage and motivate employees, helping managers to create more engaging and effective development plans.

This can ultimately lead to improved employee performance, higher retention rates, and a more productive and successful workplace.

Additionally, prescriptive AI can also provide real-time feedback and support to employees as they are completing training tasks, helping them to stay focused and on track to achieve their development goals. This can be particularly helpful for remote or distributed teams, where face-to-face support may not always be possible.

Overall, prescriptive AI has the potential to greatly enhance the effectiveness of employee development programs, helping organizations to better support their employees and drive business success.
