AN INSIGHTFUL LOOK AT LEARNER ENGAGEMENT, LEARNING BUDGETS, AND EVALUATING
LEARNING’S IMPACT
Executive Summary
Today, Learning and Development (L&D) is no longer regarded as a cost center but as an
important accelerating factor in the growth and sustainability of any organization in the modern
era. However, finding the right balance between program costs and learner needs while
generating a measurable business impact is a challenge for many organizations today. This report
takes an in-depth look at emerging trends within leading high-impact learning organizations
across the Asia Pacific region, through the exploration of current learning preferences, needs and
challenges as expressed by both learners and L&D decision-makers within these organizations.
The findings point to three areas decision-makers should focus on in order to ensure the impact
generated by L&D drives both sustainability and growth for the organization. The three areas
of focus include creating higher learner engagement, managing L&D budgets effectively and
measuring the impact and effectiveness of L&D within the organization.
