The Importance of Updating Training Content

Our report shows that trainers care increasingly more about being able to easily update training content.

In this fast-paced world, the ability to easily update training content is becoming increasingly important. A software trainer may need to update customer workbooks with an app upgrade; a compliance trainer may need to change the wording on slide 598 because of a new regulation; sometimes, you simply need to update the logo and tagline because of an organisation-wide rebrand.

No matter what the changes are, more and more trainers care about finding a software package that makes it easy to update content.

In our State of L&D 2017 report, we asked for each respondent’s top pain point with their learning management system (LMS). Last year, respondents ranked the difficulty in updating/revising content as their seventh biggest complaint, instead listing limited social learning and poor end-user experience as their top concerns.

In 2017, the difficulty in updating/revising content was the number one complaint with learning management systems, tied with limited tracking and reporting.

This surge reflects that as technology advances, trainers expect it to enable them to do their job better. As many organisations move to an on-demand learning model with just-in-time learning, any employees or customers consuming this content will expect it to be up to date – not five years old.

That’s why we developed Mimeo Digital – to make it easy to update content. With the click of a button, you can switch out an old file with a new version and immediately push it to your audience – without them even knowing that their content has changed.
