ABOUT LEARNING AND DEVELOPMENT ASIA
In today’s learning landscape, businesses are scaling up training programmes to address the skills disruption, and to bridge labour market gaps.

2023 Key Themes
Learning and Development Asia is laser-focused on delivering an impactful programme that addresses the toughest challenges and highest–priorities of the L&D community.
These are the four themes you can look forward to:
Learning design and experience
Engaging learning design and experiences are crucial for employee engagement and retention. By creating interactive and enjoyable learning opportunities, employees become more motivated, invested, and satisfied in their roles. This ultimately leads to increased engagement, improved performance, and higher employee retention within the organisation.
Future-focused talent development
Learning impact and measurement
Impact and measurement are vital for effective strategic learning delivery. By evaluating the effectiveness of learning initiatives, organisations align their strategic goals with desired outcomes. This enables informed decision-making, continuous improvement, and the ability to demonstrate the value and return on investment of learning programmes.
