Training Millennials

By 2025, more than half of the workplace will be millennials! Millennials have grown up with technology and connectivity and therefore think differently than their predecessors. We love training Millennials. Here are some tips on how to do an effective training.

Be brief and concise. Microlearning helps Millennials absorb information by dividing info into understandable sections for a hyper-connected work environment.

Increase ongoing skills training. Ongoing training or mentoring programs are the key to motivating Millennials and allow them to grow within their positions and remain active.

eLearning appeals to Millennials because it is a learning style which is familiar to them. If you keep the training videos current, Millennials will more likely feel they are with a cutting edge company which caters to their unique qualities.

Explain the purpose along with the process. Clearly explaining the reasoning behind the processes helps Millennials understand how the tasks they’re doing contribute to the outcome of the company’s future as well as their own.

Do Diversity and Soft Skill training. Use Diversity/Inclusion training programs to offer opportunities for your workforce. This helps develop interpersonal relationships in an intergenerational workplace.
