Ericsson’s View of Learning

We live in an increasingly connected world. With ICT and markets evolving rapidly, keeping pace requires a continuous learning process.

Learning provides the right competencies at the right time, making it critical to success. However, classroom training only represents a small proportion of the way people learn. The businesses that truly drive change are those that combine formal and informal learning with efficient knowledge-sharing processes to form a responsive and innovative learning culture.

A successful learning culture is one in which the value of learning is recognized, and where learning is seen as a critical investment and enabler for business success. It is one where employees feel empowered and responsible for driving their own professional development. Leaders in a high-impact learning culture work with competence planning and development of their employees and are role models in developing their own competence and learning. Successful learning cultures foster an environment where everyday learning, informal and on-the-job learning as well as knowledge sharing form an integral part of the overall learning culture.

At Ericsson Academy, we have implemented online learning opportunities internally and externally. Online learning is an excellent complement to formal classroom training and informal everyday learning for connecting knowledge to people in an efficient and timely manner.

The ability of an organization to ensure that its people and competence evolve in accordance with rapidly changing demands is essential for building an agile organization that can impact the business and support employees and other stakeholders by raising the bar on competence development and enhancing performance.

Ericsson Academy’s online resources are an essential complement to formal classroom training and informal everyday learning. The information and courses offered connect people and the latest ICT knowledge in an engaging manner – and play an important role in supporting success in today’s Networked Society.
