The COVID-19 pandemic that started at the beginning of 2020, impacted employees’ workstyles in many organizations and work sectors. In dealing with public health measures and restrictions, organizations had to think critically to continue their operations with success (Corporate Learning and Development During the COVID-19 Pandemic. [n.d.]). Many organizations adopted remote working for their employees and developed policies for it.

To facilitate continued learning and development, organizations considered initiating eLearning for employees so they could continue to develop and advance, even in the virtual environment (Corporate Learning and Development During the COVID-19 Pandemic. [n.d.]). eLearning training programs are essential for organizations to consider to further grow their businesses and employees (Corporate Learning and Development During the COVID-19 Pandemic. [n.d.]).

Digital learning is also crucial to businesses because it helps them shape their workforce and keep everyone connected. While the pandemic changed everyone’s lifestyle and working style, corporations needed to advance online learning and development programs to enable the continuation of a dynamic and productive workforce during these unprecedented times (Corporate Learning and Development During the COVID-19 Pandemic. [n.d.]).
