Gain The Skills That Will Be In Demand

Just a little (relevant) holiday fun... The Sequel!

Gain the Skills that will be in Demand
(Sung to the tune Winter Wonderland)

Change is near, in the distance,
Listen now, give it credence
The skills we now use,
Are yesterday’s news.

Gain the skills that will be in demand.

Gone away, worker displace, 
Learning stays, in the workplace,
Huge benefits lurk,
When learning IN work,
Gain the skills that will be in demand.

More and more the learners learn while working,
Learning without need for working pause
Some say “Where’s the trainer, are we lurking?”,
The trainer’s there just with a different cause.

Later on, we'll conspire,
using skills, we acquire
To face unafraid,
The change to our trade,
Gain the skills that will be in demand.

More and more the learner is the ‘teacher’,
Often never knowing that’s the case
That's the space for Training’s latest feature,
Helping learners learn in the workplace.

Focus less, on creation,
Focus more, on curation
It’s less of direct, and more of connect,
Gain the skills that will be in demand.

Some learning will still be in a classroom,
And elearning will not grind to a halt
But workplace learning is how we best consume,
so maybe those should not be our default.

There are skills, that we’re needing,
to ensure, we’re succeeding
So practice and play, and you’re on your way,
Gain the skills that will be in demand.

Gain the skills that will be in demand...

Happy Holidays Everyone!
