\t* High Touch-Low Tech offerings like communities of practice and mentoring and coaching offer less expensive mechanisms to create informal learning programs.<\/p>\n

\t* High Tech-Low Touch offerings like virtual knowledge sharing and performance support systems are less frequently used and more expensive to implement.<\/p>\n

\t* Only 21 percent of executives are asking for formal metrics on informal learning programs but twice that expected it to be asked for soon.<\/p>\n

\t* The greatest business outcomes derived from informal learning programs were increased employee satisfaction, increased productivity, increased quality and decreased cost.<\/p>\n

\t* Those organizations that actively measured informal learning all had higher informal learning budgets as a result ranging from 6 percent to 155 percent across the methods researched.<\/p>\n

\t* Organizations are effectively measuring their informal learning investments through surveys, web analytics, success stories and proof points.<\/p>\n
