Learning without noticing – reaching the modern learner

At Davies, we help organisations embrace this modern learning model. We assess current practices, uncover integration opportunities, and design solutions that fit naturally into the working day.

Time has become the biggest barrier to learning, with employees often struggling to carve out time for formal training. Traditional learning and development models – centralised platforms and scheduled sessions – no longer meet the demands of modern work.

This white paper introduces a new approach. It argues that learning should happen within the flow of work—not as a separate activity, but as a natural part of the tools and environments employees already use.

By analysing daily tasks, workspaces, and system interactions, organisations can design learning experiences that feel seamless. This method doesn’t disrupt productivity, it enhances it.

The paper shows how mature learning and development (L&D) teams are rethinking their strategies. Instead of relying on one-size-fits-all solutions, they’re creating learning that’s relevant, timely, and easy to access.

It also emphasises the importance of context. When learning connects directly to real tasks, employees are more likely to retain and apply it. The result? Better performance, stronger engagement, and long-term capability growth.

At Davies, we help organisations embrace this modern learning model. We assess current practices, uncover integration opportunities, and design solutions that fit naturally into the working day.
