Many of us are considering our next steps in our careers. The fact is that we are in the middle of an extraordinary period of upheaval known as the Great Reshuffle, in which individuals are reconsidering everything about how and why they work. As a result, people are reclaiming control of their careers in novel ways, leveraging their networks and sharpening their abilities. In fact, compared to previous year, our members viewed 53% more hours of learning content this year.
We're creating a new mechanism for them to connect with instructors in real-time, whether they need a new position or just a different viewpoint.
Establishing Office Hours
Our members frequently tell us that they desire innovative methods to remain up to date on current events. The workplace is developing at such a rapid pace, with new difficulties appearing every week, that professionals are eager to discuss them with one another. That's why, across the epidemic, we've seen learners enjoy social learning tools like Q&A, where they can pose a question to the LinkedIn Learning community and receive responses from instructors, their network, or coworkers.
We're happy to announce a new Office Hours feature on LinkedIn Learning that allows teachers to hold live events.
Learners may use Office Hours to remain up to date on industry trends and communicate with professionals and other learners in real time by submitting questions, comments, and replies.
Office Hours also makes it simple for teachers to participate in the rising creative economy by leveraging our platform to cultivate their audience in a relevant professional setting. I'm happy to hear from our teachers that this tool helps them to interact with learners in a real and personal way, which encourages deeper engagement and wider distribution.
