Saarbrücken (GER), October 2018 - Training staff in large organisations often question why they should develop learning content for employees themselves. This is a valid question; there is a lot of external training content available either free or under license that is not only current, but also well presented and researched. When it comes to imparting knowledge on basic skills quickly and easily, curated content may seem a sensible alternative to more complex and expensive in-house production. However, it is important to be careful when selecting, compiling, and recommending learning content, as it requires a certain level of practice and instinct.

Saarbrücken (GER), May 2018 - Nothing is as constant as change in the context of today's learning and working environments.
