    Beyond Hours: The New Learning ROI Is Called "Time-to-Competency"

    Corporate learning is evolving. Traditional L&D metrics, such as training hours or participant satisfaction, are no longer enough to prove true value. Today, there's a metric that truly connects talent development with business success: "Time-to-Competency." But what does it really mean, and why is it so curcial for organizations that want to thrive in a dynamic market?

    Your team has talent. They just need an opportunity.

    Every company has people eager to grow. They know the business, understand your customers, and put in the effort every day… yet often, they remain inthe same place. Why? It’s not a lack of potential. It’s that they don`t see a clear path forward. And simply uploading a course to your platform and waiting for something to happen isn’t enough. For development to truly work, it needs to be relevant, measurable, and personalized. Above all, it needs a clear purpose: ensuring every step of growth brings them closer to a new opportunity within your company. That’s what internal mobility is. And it doesn’t happen by accident. It’s something you build.
