Article Review

enhance employee learning quality and efficiency. Due to their inability to scale, traditional
approaches are becoming increasingly unviable, and there is a move towards technology-
Reynolds (2020) shows data proving that gamifying this particular training can be beneficial
by increasing interest and involvement. AR/VR systems offer safe and cost-effective
simulated training environments, widely spread across industries, including medical and
aviation. Thanks to MOOCs, full-length courses are offered to the global public at relatively

providers of mass open online courses whose user base is large and offers myriad courses.
I agree with the author about the significance of integrating technology into employee
training and development. Human resources departments must align with these evolutions to
remain competitive and maintain high skill levels among its workforce. Reynolds (2020)

benefits of gamified training indicates a new training framework that would be interesting
and productive for learners. AR/VR analysis is also quite enlightening. These technologies
provide a completely different level of immersion and engagement that surpasses what other

Successful training initiatives enhance staff productivity and morale and reduce employee

(2021) opine that employees form the basis of any successful organization. Consequently, it
is imperative to develop and improve their skills and experience. This thesis is very appealing
as it advocates for using training and HR technology to achieve this goal, whicwhich I also
agree with. One should not downplay the importance of the data about the functional utility
of human resource development (Hussain et al., 2021). The responses from a sample of 305
