This week, Jon sits down with Uber L&D manager, James Watt. Watt has built up Uber’s online learning library from practically nothing to over 200 courses. While online training has the expectation of being universal, he has found that regional differences can be an advantage, allowing for local customization for certain training. Watt explains his history and role at Uber and peeks at the future for e-learning.
