Professional development and employee training are central to the successes of any organization. Training modules, classes, and seminars allow employees to enhance their knowledge and skills in a particular content area resulting in more efficient and effective work output that helps the organization achieve its strategic goals. Advancements in technology and virtual platforms allow organizations to work smarter, not harder, in terms of delivering training programs to employees. The concept and practice of the “flipped classroom†has gained popularity in the past several years as a new model of delivering coursework, specifically in the K-12 educational setting. The pedagogy of the “flipped classroom†removes traditional lecturing and allows students to develop a deeper understanding of a subject by engaging in rich dialogue with one another. The purpose of this paper is to examine the “flipped classroom†as a model for workforce training and development in professional organizations. A review of associated literature will highlight employee training and the influence of online learning and technology of such training programs. The “flipped classroom†will then be examined as a model for employee training through a SWOT analysis. The paper concludes with implications for professional practice, as well as areas for continued research on the subject.
