This article focuses on the meaning and scope of enterprise learning and explores the role of a chief learning officer. The leadership of the organization has realized that learning is more than just training. Enterprise learning is defined as a systematic and holistic approach to training, communications, learning, information sharing, and governance purposely designed to support consistent personal behaviors and business practices aligned with desired organizational performance results. Over the past few years, corporations have established and implemented corporate e-learning, which significantly reduces the cost of training. The goal for enterprise learning, suggestively, is to improve business performance through improved human performance capability. This goal clearly links enterprise learning with the corporate business strategy while simultaneously building intellectual capital through increased skill sets, commitment, and employee satisfaction. Enhanced capability in the organization is a competitive advantage that promotes innovation, continuous improvement, and true business benefit. Learning is an integral part of the business of the enterprise and therefore must be embedded in every facet of the system.
