Learning and Development Solutions

Expert consultants for staff development & employee training programs

Learning and development is an integral part of any successful organisation. To ensure your company benefits from innovation and productivity, it is essential that you continuously and strategically develop your staff’s skills and knowledge and develop a ‘learning’ organisation.

Work Based Learning’s consultants have extensive experience in helping organisations analyse their training needs and design strategic learning and development solutions – often, but not always as part of overall change management solutions.

Our highly qualified training consultants will work closely with you to determine your company’s learning requirements. We can design tailor-made training solutions for individual employees, project teams, departments and entire companies. We can also help you develop a learning culture for your organisation.

What is involved in our learning & development solutions?

We tailor our services entirely to your specific needs, but our learning solutions generally encompass some or all of the following elements:

  • Identification of capability gaps among your staff.
  • Analysis of staff and training needs.
  • Development of a suitable learning strategy.
  • Design and implementation of learning materials.
  • Recommendation of emerging technologies and how to use them for learning.
  • Identification of suitable training providers if required.
  • Working with key stakeholders in the organisation to ensure the program is implemented well.

Our customised learning solutions let your staff fill in their knowledge gaps based on their requirements and preferences, while fitting in with the overall strategic goals of your organisation.

Use of new learning technologies

We can provide high quality information and instructional design for eLearning and face-to-face training development. New training options include hand-held devices such as MP3s and PDAs and the use of real-time simulations for experiential learning.

Work Based Learning ‘Health Checks’ (Learning Needs Audits)

If you are looking for a comprehensive, objective evaluation of your current learning initiatives and suggestions for improvements, we can offer you our ‘Health Check’ service. This is a tailored learning needs analysis that includes recommendations on how to increase the effectiveness and lower the cost of the training you deliver.

Learning audits can take many forms, from quick audits of your learning programs to in-depth analyses of your workplace learning environment, benchmarking your learning interventions against industry best practice. Ask us about the various Health Check options you can choose from.

We also provide learning and development solutions as part of change management and organisational career consulting.

We would be happy to talk to you about your organisation’s learning needs and discuss how we may be able to assist you. Contact us to find out more.
