AGILE LEARNERS

Agile Learners are those who learns new skills from their past experiences and apply it in a new way to introduce/build up something new, moreover, agile learners likes to solve complex problems and accomplish the challenges impeccably. 

Need for Agile Learners?

To maintain the balance with the increasing pace of the technology day by day we need to learn about the new technologies continuously to balance up with the organizations in today's competitive world. The demands of the industries are increasing with a high pace and to be in this race there is the need to learn about technologies and develop new skills by taking the old skills with hand but giving more importance to the new ones because upcoming future is of them, so choose preciously.

There is a reason behind the gradual increase in the demand of new skilled employees because every businessman's desire is to get its business above all others and consistent growth with time. Every industry is looking for the candidates who has a desire to learn the new skills with its full dedication. Industries looks for agile learners because they could take their business above all by keeping the balance with the changing pace of the technology.

The industry who have the agile learners has:

·         Higher productivity and profit.

·         Higher employee productivity.

The CEO of "Tankscrib" says that the industry should hire the fresh graduates as they will have new skill set and the fresh mind to think broadly at different level and have dedication to learn about the new skills provided by the industry, because they do not have any prior experience about how the technology is used in the real world. So, companies hire fresh graduates because of this reason.

How to measure the Agility of any Learner?

There are two factors on which the Agility of any learner could be told:

•     Ability
•    Orientation

In old days the technology would not grow with the pace like today so there was no much importance given to the agility of the learners. The learning agility of any person could not be determined on the basis of their past experience and awards winning, it could only be measured on the basis of the above two factors mentioned.

The main focus should be only on those candidates who are able to give up on the already learned skills and ideas which will be of no use in future and learn the new ones.

Now let us understand the above two factors:

Ability

It is a skill of the candidate who can learn quickly with the accelerated pace in today’s world of technology. The candidate’s now a days should be able to analyze the new trends, patterns, logic behind the technology.

The learning Ability of the candidate can be measured on the basis of its intelligence to apply the experience gained from everywhere to solve a complex problem in the given period of time.

Orientation

Orientation means the attitude or feeling towards a particular subject or issue in general way, here it means that how fast is the candidate in learning the new skills then the others.

The learning Orientation of the candidate could be measured on the basis of its broad thinking, Consciousness and drive for mastery.

These two factors can be measured by qualitative data collection and by interviewing by the subject matter experts (SMEs).

If an employer gets confused between selecting either the high ability candidate or high orientation candidate then the employer should select the one inside whom their is hunger to learn the new skills, because the person having hunger to learn will already have high ability and high orientation in itself. Every candidate says that he/she is a dedicated learner but choose the candidate who already took an additional classes in free time or have maintained the good GPA.

Types of Learner?

Average Learners

Average learners are those learners who have both ability to learn and orientation learning and could maintain the balance with the pace of technology at the average going industry.

Average learners are needed in Data entry, KPO/BPO industries where there is same task to be done daily with changing the skill set with the pace.

Enthusiastic Learner

Enthusiastic learners are those learners who have the average ability of learning but having good behavioral skill level that is the plus point for the orientation learning.

These learners are needed in the industries where creativity, passion, innovative thought process is needed. Ex. Photography etc.

Latent Learners

These learners have the above average level of learning ability and have average level of behavioral features of character.

These type of learners are needed in the Banking, Accounting etc. sectors where attention to details, focus etc. is needed.

High Potential Learners

These learners have high ability of learning and high behavioral traits for orientation learning.

These type of learners are needed in Stock Market Trading, Management consultant etc.

As discussed above it is a brief guidance about the Agile Learners because it is much more important to understand briefly about the one we are interested in or might get interested to know more about it in future. So I wrote a briefly about the above topic as my focus is to provide you all an effective yet less time consuming information about something that can bring a good change in your beautiful life. 

 "Hope you learned something new today. Thanks for giving your precious time, have a beautiful day."
