Definition
What is user-generated content?
User-generated content describes the concept that All of a company's subject matter experts can create and share their own learning content. The production sovereignty, which used to lie with individual trainers or departments, is eliminated.
This not only significantly improves the exchange of information within the company, but also ensures that explicit and tacit knowledge is retained within the company in the long term. A frequently mentioned synonym of user-generated content in the corporate context is employee-driven learning.
Numerous applications
What is user-generated content suitable for?
User-generated content is always useful when it involves company-specific knowledge and special topics. In other words, learning content that cannot simply be purchased on the major e-learning platforms or found via a Google search.
In these cases, user-generated content unfolds its full potential: knowledge that is otherwise only available in the heads of individual employees is now available to all colleagues thanks to short explanatory videos. The use cases for employee-driven learning are as diverse as the companies themselves.
- Software instructions
- Onboarding and offboarding of employees
- Sales and product training
- Customer support
- Market and competitive knowledge
- Team and department introductions
- Process instructions

- Promote self-directed, digital learning in the corporate culture by actively involving employees.
- Independence in the event of employee fluctuation, as knowledge is retained within the company
- Creation of an individual and needs-based learning offer for all employees
- Effective and efficient use of resources for knowledge transfer - more knowledge content can be produced with less budget
- Strengthening employee loyalty to the company by transferring responsibility for knowledge transfer
- Creation of a diverse, effective learning experience consisting of training & education and user-generated video content.
