Due to the pandemic, digital transformation has become one of the most indispensable elements of our lives. Business models, work models and required competencies have also changed along with this digital transformation. As for meeting competencies, we see that it is a pretty important factor for adaptation. The speed, brought along with digital transformation, has once again revealed the significance of the concept of lifelong learning. Arkasians meet at A-Live for learning and development.
Investing in e-learning, paying attention to differences in expectations between generations, creating comprehensive motives in terms of culture and leadership are of vital importance to develop competencies, which is a requirement for the new generation work model. In this context, Arkas Academy has increased the rate of active system entries to 92% with A-Live, its first step in the digitalization process, from March 2019 until today by transferring 100% of its training courses, 80% and 20% of which were respectively in-class and online trainings before the pandemic, to the digital platform.
