Last week, we shared the main trends shaping corporate training in the final stretch of the year. But… how do we move from insight to action? What can companies do right now to align their learning strategies with these evolving priorities?
At FIT Learning Systems, we’re sharing 5 practical, no-fluff ideas to help you activate or reactivate your learning strategy before the year ends. No need for massive initiatives—just focused, well-executed steps that deliver real value to both your teams and your organization.
1. Run a quick skills gap diagnosis
You don’t need a full audit to get started. Start small by identifying:
-
What skills are missing in each team?
-
Which roles or processes need immediate upskilling?
-
What capabilities will be critical in 2026?
🛠️ Suggested tool:
A short internal survey, team leader interviews, or reviewing performance data can reveal urgent learning needs.
2. Introduce microlearning as a quick win
If your teams are under pressure, microlearning is the perfect low-barrier starting point:
-
Launch 5–10 minute learning capsules on key skills.
-
Use them to reinforce past trainings.
-
Share via internal platforms or weekly emails.
💡 FIT tip:
Start small—perhaps one capsule per week. Measure engagement and scale up from there.
3. Focus on one essential soft skill
Choose one strategic soft skill (adaptive leadership, feedback, resilience, communication…) and create a focused initiative:
-
A live workshop.
-
A gamified team challenge.
-
A short group coaching series.
🎯 Immediate impact:
You’ll boost not only skills but also motivation, collaboration, and team cohesion.
4. Link each learning action to a business goal
Avoid “training for training’s sake.” Connect each action to:
-
A process improvement or performance KPI.
-
A strategic need raised by leadership.
-
A measurable behavioral change.
📊 How to measure it?
Define simple indicators from the start—such as relevance, applicability, or post-training performance changes.
5. Plan now for your January launch
The last quarter is the best time to prepare for a strong start to 2026. Use this month to:
-
Evaluate what worked this year.
-
Prioritize training themes for Q1.
-
Secure dates, resources, and buy-in.
📅 FIT tip:
By planning now, you’ll avoid rushed initiatives in January and start the year with impact.
