July 16, 2021

Why is instructional design so important for remote training? A recent study by Growmotely revealed that 97% of employees don’t want to return to an office full-time. In fact, 74% of professionals say they believe that remote work will become the new normal. Currently, 4.3 million people in the United States work from home at least half the time. But the benefits of remote work aren’t only for employees. Companies that allow remote work experience 25% less employee turnover. Employees who work remotely once a month are 24% more likely to be productive and happy in their job. Even WellSaid Labs went fully remote during the pandemic. This led to the motto: “Work from wherever you’re happiest and most productive.”
