Abstract

Learning and development is critical for effective and efficient results in the educational system, Ireland has considered the educational sector a significant system in the country, due to the current outbreak certain adjustment were made to still provide learning opportunities for students and this had a great effect on employees. Adapting to change and being productive with the new development was a huge task for some employees, campus learning was moved to remote learning, and learning and development became a question of the day. Employees struggled with adjusting to the technological development and delivering effective learning services and still making it interesting and interactive as it was on campus. The interviews conducted in this survey shows how different employees reacted and the institutional reaction to talent development. In this research organisations were concerned about retaining talent and creating strategies and the employees aligning to it to achieve organisational goals.
