Imagine you’ve just finished migrating your entire enterprise to a new system that’s supposed to bring added layers of efficiency to your business. But upon closer inspection, you realize your entire staff has no idea how to use it. The integrity of your data is at stake. Employee productivity is rapidly declining. The pace of everyday business is slowing down. This is what happens when you go full steam ahead on software migration without a proper change management solution. Without the right solution, businesses start to run into a problem where employees have tools at their fingertips, but they are unable to overcome the digital learning curve. Beating this problem can be one of the biggest barriers to successful software migration. However, it’s possible to overcome this obstacle with effective training practices in place.

The digital learning curve often leads to two outcomes: 1) Workers fail to adopt new practices and revert to old or inefficient ways of working. 2) Employees become confused or remain unaware of the capabilities they have at their disposal. Both of these outcomes lead to businesses failing to maximize ROI when migrating new software into their existing frameworks. To conquer these challenges, training professionals need to rethink the way they manage change — and redefine effective training methods. If your employees are not properly trained, you may be failing to reap the benefits of your business’s software investment.Give employees the tools they need where they need them

This approach to skills development leads to poor knowledge retention. For learning to stick, and for employees to master new skill sets through effective training, it’s important to take an approach that involves experiential learning. Think about it this way: when an employee is in a classroom, you can take them through the exercises and motions on how to run through specific tasks. However, when they go back to their desk and get in front of their computer, questions arise that you cannot account for in classroom training sessions. When it comes to beating the digital learning curve, software training must involve contextual, step-by-step guidance that allows employees to learn on the job rather than working from memory.
