Michael Vindevoghel

Michael has been working for the Belgian Government since 2013 and has from the beginning been involved in digitalization projects and how further digitalization can support business and improve processes.   Since 2017 he’s been working for the Federal Public Service Finance, where he is head of a team responsible for the Digitalisation of learning within the FPS, an organization with over 20.000 employees.   An essential role in such an organization to your L&D environment, is without any doubt your Learning Management System and in June of this year he ended his second implementation process of a LMS within his organization.

So he brings quite some experience in how an LMS can support learning and development, and knowledge on the difficulties you may encounter when starting such an endeavour, but also on the must haves of such a platform.   He is further a firm believer of data and evidence based HR management, obviously especially focused on Learning and Development.   To conclude, we can quote his LinkedIn profile, which states Michael sees it as his job “not to let anyone forget: the challenge for L&D is beating the Ebbinghause forgetting curve” and technology and digitalization are according to him crucial in meeting this challenge.
