Democratizing Learning through an “On-Demand” Learning Model for a Global Chemical Manufacturer 2025

CHALLENGE
Traditional Training Programs Hindering Growth

A global leader in the chemical industry faced challenges with its traditional L&D programs. The
existing training sessions were rigid, offering limited course options and failing to meet
individual learning needs. Employees lacked flexibility in choosing courses aligned with their
daily workflows, hampering skill development and job satisfaction. The organization needed a
personalized learning solution that empowered employees to take charge of their growth.
