In a tight job market, retention tools should not be overlooked to not only keep employees, but also, enhance their experience at the workplace. A new research report from TalentLMS and Vyond revealed the pivotal role that training plays in retaining a skilled and motivated workforce. Forty-one percent of employees said they would look for another job in 2024 if their company doesn't provide them with training opportunities.

"There is a growing need among employees in training on topics and skills that transcend their job roles," noted Thanos Papangelis, Epignosis CEO and Co-founder of TalentLMS, and commented: "Personal and professional growth are not separate roads to success. Companies should invest in nurturing well-rounded professionals, acknowledging that continuous learning beyond job specifics is essential in the ever-changing business landscape."

Given the importance of training for employee engagement and satisfaction, the survey explored the training topics and skills that will be important for organizations to provide in 2024. Eighty percent of employees think that personalized learning will be important in 2024, and 68% stated the same for non-work-related training that supports their overall wellbeing.
