Studies have shown that learning on the job is beneficial to employees and the companies for whom they work. That’s why Georgia Tech Human Resources is celebrating Employee Learning Week November 30 through December 4 to highlight the important connection between learning and achieving organizational results.
The week-long event includes opportunities for Georgia Tech faculty and staff to learn new workplace skills and explore courses that Workplace Learning & Professional Development (WLPD) team offers year-round. Employee Learning Week is part of a nationwide campaign created by the Association for Talent Development, and Human Resources hopes to make it an annual event for campus.
“This is our chance to give faculty and staff a fun and effective way to explore some of our learning offerings,” said LaTrese Ferguson, manager of Workplace Learning and Professional Development. “We hope participants will be energized to continue developing themselves professionally and personally.”
To kick off the week, the WLPD Street Team will circle campus on Monday, November 30 with Buzz to promote the following upcoming events:
