The infographic, created in conjunction with Skillsoft’s sponsorship of the Fall 2012 CLO Symposium is available at: http://www.skillsoft.com/online/learning-timeline.asp
Last week, Skillsoft announced the availability of a new infographic developed with Chief
Learning Officer (CLO) magazine that celebrates the publication’s 10th
anniversary and illustrates the evolution of learning and development during
the past century. Skillsoft, and CLO designed the infographic to provide readers
with a visual tool that highlights key moments and trends in the history of business
learning, training and development. The infographic demonstrates how technology has caused a shift toward
collaborative social learning and reform of traditional models.
The infographic highlights many industry milestones, beginning in 1914 when manufacturers became among the first to develop internal training functions. It also includes when corporate universities were developed, the naming of the first chief learning officer and the introduction of the first academic program to focus on chief learning officers – a graduate degree in organizational learning.
