Open-source is a well-known concept in software development, but what lessons might learning and development professionals be able to draw from the open-source approach?
The concept of open-source, with its focus on collaboration, innovation and community creation, has been common in the software development world for years. You will be familiar with open-source software used by millions of people on a daily basis such as Android, Firefox and Linux.
This Personnel Today webinar, in association with Panopto, examines what the open-source approach has to offer L&D professionals.
Register now to find out how some now-familiar L&D activities can easily be considered through an open-source lens — concepts like:
- Social learning
- User-generated content
- Crowd-sourcing
- Just-in-time learning.
All these ideas centre on employee communities coming together to solve learning challenges in an agile, iterative way, in a similar way in which open-source developers might build on a code base.
At a time when companies face increasing challenges around the delivery of effective learning, training and knowledge sharing, these “open-source learning” concepts can offer useful new approaches to some of these key challenges.
Editor Rob Moss is joined by Sam Crumley, Vice President of Employee Experience at Panopto, to learn about a technology company’s experience of applying open-source concepts to employee learning and development. Webinar attendees will learn about:
- The fundamentals of Open-Source
- What it can mean for knowledge sharing and learning
- How to make it happen
- The role of the L&D professional.
