Key takeaways:

Marketing plays an important role in learning as it raises awareness, generates interest, and can motivate learners. Ensure you understand the learner's motivation and preferences, so your message resonates with them on an ongoing basis.
There are three stages of a learning campaign: awareness, consideration, and decision. Connect with your learner and help them understand why the learning matters to them, so tune in to their emotional drivers. Consider tools like email segmentation, landing pages, and integrating learning tools with platforms such as HubSpot.
Keeping an open mind with the next generation of learners: Lynn describes the next generation in the world of work will be Gen Z – and they are learning informally from TikTok and ChatGPT – so they will have learnt to learn differently than Millennials and Gen X. The best strategy is to be adaptable and experiment with different approaches to see what works best for your learners.
