Why you should invest in a digital learning platform

Rebecca Fisk

Organizations that use an LMS, LXP, or other learning platforms for internal or external training often achieve better results than those that don’t. This is nothing new. But there are several additional reasons to invest long-term in digital learning.

Research shows that only 14% of employees in Swedish workplaces feel engaged. Global numbers aren’t much better. In fact, more and more people are quitting their jobs to try something new, creating major challenges for companies across industries. Every new hire who leaves before delivering results costs both time and money.

A digital 360° perspective

We know that both preboarding and onboarding have a positive, preventive effect on employee engagement. But your digital learning investment shouldn't stop at a great introduction.

Commitment and job satisfaction are closely linked to continuous professional and personal development. To drive long-term engagement, you need a modern learning platform that allows you to tailor content to meet employees’ fast-changing expectations and needs.

With the right digital tool, you can easily create and update courses, information, and training materials based on real-time insights into what works—and what doesn’t. The result? Seamless learning, satisfied users, and faster knowledge transfer.

Learning that builds stronger bonds

Studies show that motivated and engaged employees take 40% fewer sick days. And when you give your entire organization access to a digital learning platform, you unlock potential, increase engagement, and strengthen relationships.

Bringing together participants from all roles and backgrounds to share knowledge in one space not only builds skills and competencies, it also creates deeper connections between your employees and your organization.

By allowing employees to learn at their own pace, from any device, you enable people to stay focused on their jobs while developing new capabilities. It’s a win-win combination that strengthens the bond between you and your team.

5 reasons to invest in a digital learning platform

1. You increase engagement

Research shows that around 30% of new employees decide within the first ten days whether they’ll stay. Most make their decision within the first three months. A digital tool helps you keep engagement high from the moment the contract is signed and beyond.

2. You save time

Planning, designing, and delivering a traditional course takes time and resources. Done digitally, you can save entire workdays and never have to worry about fully booked meeting rooms again.

3. You streamline learning

With automation and features that help learners progress naturally, digital platforms deliver results much faster than traditional learning environments.

4. You gain real lnsights

Track participant progress in real-time so you know exactly where extra support is needed. If something is unclear or ineffective, you can instantly update the content. And with seamless data collection, you get valuable insights to improve your learning platform continuously.

5. You save, and earn, money

The best knowledge is measurable. In fact, 42% of companies report increased revenue as a direct result of e-learning. Beyond better results from improved competence, digital tools save significant costs over time. Think of your learning platform as a massive knowledge convention where brilliant minds meet to exchange insights.
