• Gallup finds global employee engagement in 2013 sits at a paltry 13%.
• AON Hewitt report 40% of employees are actively or passively disengaged.
• BlessingWhite believes only 40% of global employees are actually engaged.

une CLAAC présente trois éléments essentiels:
l’apprentissage actif;la collaboration et la coopération;l’utilisation des technologies.Une recherche menée au Collège Dawson [Charles et al (2013)] a démontré que l’élément le plus important de la CLAAC est l’apprentissage actif. Les chercheurs mentionnent:
