In the ever-changing world of business, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is making workplace learning more effective and engaging than ever. Lately, business AI has been changing how employees learn by moving away from the traditional approach of everyone being taught the same thing with the same methods at the same speed. Enabled by the rapid development of AI, learning continues to become much more personalized and fun. The good news: this is just the beginning.
In the center of the change is a new type of platform that addresses the growing need for personalized learning approaches in the corporate environment. Utilizing the Microsoft ecosystem, it makes learning at work easy and fun. This means employees can learn new things in a place they already know and like – right within the familiar Microsoft Teams environment.
In 2022, WeAreDots, a Latvian technology company, introduced a state-of-the-art solution for corporate learning called Intervy. This tool is a smart learning buddy that fits learning into even the busiest of schedules using short microlearning lessons. It customizes both what you learn and how you're tested, making the acquisition of new skills fun and straightforward.
