The way people work has changed. The increasing use of technology presents new and
continualchallenges to small and large businesses, employees and managers, teachers andstudents.Everyone, it seems, is being affected by the technological revolution.Store clerks, for example, now use increasingly complex computerized cash registers,while university professors must learn to adapt their teaching skills in orderto lead distance learning course.
Intoday's world, training and learning do not stop when we finish school; theymust now continue throughout our working lives. In the year 2010, the Hong Konggovernment conducted a survey on the employment concerns and training needs ofits workforce. For many managers and other professionals the biggest challenge,as well as change, in the workplace, was the increased use of computers andcomputerized machinery or equipment. Between 2008 and 2010, the need forexperienced employees who could use this kind of equipment rose drastically.Many of those in the workplace at this time experienced changes in jobrequirements and had to attend job-related training or re-training courses.
Thechanging work environment is also affecting education and how we learn. InFinland,a report on strategies for education and training in the informationage discussed the changing roles of both teacher and student. With theincreased use of technology and the growth of distance learning, the teacherhas become more of a tutor who guides a student, rather than a lecturer. Inturn,the student has to take more responsibility for his or her learning in theabsence of direct teacher
contact.The report also stressed that high school and university students should learncomputer skills in order to cope with the demands of the future workplace.
TheFinnish report also highlighted the need for teacher training, and re-training,and suggested that the salaries and job descriptions of teachers be reviewedbecause of future demands expected in their jobs. Previously universityprofessors may have held lectures between the weekday hours of 9:00 A.M. and5:00 P.M. in large halls filled with students. Now, they may spend part oftheir day lecturing larger groups of students on campus, and then conductafternoon or evening classes online,
withstudents in five different countries.
Astechnologies grow and develop, ongoing training will continue to be necessary.To be successful in the workplace, people will not stop learning when theyleave school--lifelong learning will become a way of life.
