However when it comes to enterprise training, managers and employees alike are still falling victim to employee training fallacies.<\/p>\n<p>Outdated beliefs attached to employee training have sunk their claws into many aspects of enterprise training, deterring managers from investing in the proper training tools.<\/p>\n<p>Training myths stem from a lack of understanding of the new training methods and a misconception that employees cannot effectively learn on the job. The harmful results are felt by both the organization and employees. It is well known that engaged employees who learn under structured onboarding programs produce successful results.<\/p>\n<p>From classroom learning to eLearning and everything in between \u2014 employee training today is bogged down with quite a lot of baggage.<\/p>\n<p>Here are six enterprise training myths that have been debunked for good:<\/p>\n\n<h2>Myth #1: There is no way to prove that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/glossary\/employee-training\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">employee training<\/a> actually works<\/h2>\n<p><em>Fact: Increasing employee engagement investments by 10% can boost profits by $2,400 per employee per year (<a href=\"https:\/\/talentculture.com\/6-eye-opening-employee-engagement-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Workplace research foundation<\/a>).<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The idea that training isn\u2019t measurable is a definite myth.<\/p>\n<p>With the right tools and KPIs, managers can easily track employees\u2019 progress. Requesting progress reports throughout the training process, utilizing the power of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/analytics-powered-by-ai-is-it-just-a-buzz-phrase\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">analytics<\/a>, and frequently assessing employee performance are just a few.<\/p>\n<p>That being said, companies must allow for a trial period as employees get acclimated to the new software. If an employee isn\u2019t given the ability to put their skills to the test they likely won\u2019t develop the confidence they need to succeed in the future. And the company will suffer.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Myth #2: Employees prefer eLearning and classroom learning<\/h2>\n<p><em>Fact: Employees often opt to utilize available technology in order to learn on their own.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5128 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_524684617.jpg\" alt=\"contextual learning\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_524684617.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_524684617.jpg?resize=300,200 300w, https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2018\/09\/shutterstock_524684617.jpg?resize=600,400 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In a 2017 learning in the workplace survey, employees were asked to rank their preferred learning formats. Self-serve learning, defined as the\u00a0daily work experiences and knowledge sharing with their team, made it to the top of the list. Followed by daily work experiences, knowledge sharing with teams and use of web resources. Interestingly, classroom training and eLearning were both at the bottom of the list.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Myth #3: Employees are the only ones affected by training<\/h2>\n<p><em>Fact: Employee training has a positive impact on everyone from stakeholders to customers.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Employee training can have a positive impact on everyone from stakeholders to customers.<\/p>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/hbr.org\/sponsored\/2016\/04\/the-impact-of-employee-engagement-on-performance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Harvard Business Review <\/a>study concluded that a strategic training system can result in many benefits for a company. A successful training program will teach employees everything from how to build a better product to how to interact with customers. It also increases innovation and improves the bottom-line.<\/p>\n<p>On average, customer retention rates are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teamfluent.com\/44-facts\/customer-retention-rates-are-18-higher-on-average-when-employees-are-highly-engaged\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">18% higher<\/a> when employees are successfully engaged.<\/p>\n<p>This training myth might be one of the most detrimental misconceptions organizations have today. A company that does not realize the lasting effects of its training program will see poor customer experience and decreased morale.<\/p>\n\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/pages\/onboarding-corporate-1-accelerate-step-by-step-tutorials\/t?=19&amp;eco=onboarding&amp;adin=debunking-enterprise-employee-training-myths-ll02&amp;land=onboarding-corporate-1-accelerate-step-by-step-tutorials&amp;pitch=Employee-Productivity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><em>Discover how to train employees the right way.<\/em><\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n<h2>Myth #4:\u00a0Only millennials can successfully learn to use complex software<\/h2>\n<p><em>Fact: Age is irrelevant \u2014 all employees require a next-gen training strategy when learning how to use enterprise software.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cio.com\/article\/238789\/think-older-workers-struggle-with-technology-think-again.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Research<\/a> shows that the challenges millennials and baby boomers face when onboarding to a new software are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.walkme.com\/blog\/generational-differences-software-training\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">not age-related<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The next time you assess a baby boomer\u2019s ability to onboard to a new platform, remember that regardless of generational differences, each individual faces their own difficulties when it comes to learning something new.<\/p>\n<p>Using enterprise software doesn\u2019t come easily to anyone. No matter how tech-savvy a person is \u2014 they will still need software training to get up to speed on all their digital tools.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Myth #5: Cutting-edge technologies such as VR and wearable tech are not useful for employee training<\/h2>\n<p><em>Fact: VR and other rising technologies significantly enhance training.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>New technology allows training managers to create a skilled workforce while catering to the needs of each individual.

Instead of boring classroom learning, employees now have the opportunity to don a VR set and spend the afternoon experiencing how to better do their jobs.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Myth #6: Technology is making L&amp;D departments obsolete in the digital age<\/h2>\n<p><em>Fact: 73% of employees feel technology can never replace the human mind (PWC\u2019s workplace of the future report). <\/em><\/p>\n<p>According to Forbes, the role of the L&amp;D department has evolved significantly as technology improves, but it has not become obsolete. The department is required to properly implement new training tech.<\/p>\n<p>However, the job of the L&amp;D department is shifting. Its new focus is helping employees drive digital transformation. This is done by implementing proper training techniques that align with the company\u2019s digital strategy.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to workplace learning, employees usually seek out help from coworkers in their own departments before searching for external aid.
