| Knowland Chief Learning Officer Discusses Fast HR Strategies with Center for Effective Organizations | 5th Fastest Growing Software Company in North America Presents on Challenges Developing Training for High-Growth Businesses Knowland Chief Learning Officer Discusses Fast HR Strategies with Center for Effective Organizations �With Fast HR we produce a first version of training, deliver it, get feedback and revise,� explained Cushard. �It�s an ongoing circle of improvement with the idea that delivering training quickly to clients who need it now is far better than taking the time to try and make it perfect.� During the webinar Research Professor Theresa Welbourne shared the theory and research behind Fast HR. The idea is that HR professionals should act more like software developers when developing training. Just as a software application is usually released in beta format, then as version 1, version 1.2 and so on, an early version of training should be delivered as quickly as possible, then continually revised. In the webinar, Cushard used his work at Knowland University as a real-world example of Fast HR in action. As the fifth fastest growing software company in North America as ranked by Deloitte, Knowland is perfectly positioned to put Fast HR theories into practice. Instead of taking three to six months to develop a training class that clients need now, Knowland University takes a lesson from the Knowland product development team. Without losing training effectiveness, the Knowland University team develops the same course in one month. Clients get the training they need when they need it. Their feedback is then incorporated into future courses to create an ever-evolving curriculum. The CEO webinar was held on Tuesday, October 19. A full audio recording as well as a PDF of the webinar slides are available here. About
