Session Description

These days every organization is looking for ways to do more with less, often alongside the pressure of reduced budgets. There are a lot of ways to add value to learning without increasing costs, but first we need to look at the true cost of training and comprehend the real value they deliver for organizational performance. This workshop looks at ways to reduce content documentation time and increase the value of training deliverables using the Learning Paths Methodology, which is rapidly becoming the global standard for lean training. We'll explore how a Learning Path designed for an entire job can be integrated with courses and e-learning to reduce overall training costs and make the learning process as lean as possible. We'll also explain the sizeable advantages of measuring organizational results instead of training results and contrast the benefits of proficiency-based training over competency-based training.

 

• The history of lean - adapting from manufacturing to service organizations

• The real cost of e-learning and training design and who pays

• How Learning Paths work and how they deliver value

• Why proficiency-based training achieves more results than competency-based training

• Explore lean, rapid and robust mixed training alternatives

• 2 main approaches to assessing value for cost

 

This workshop is designed for:

• HR Leaders, Executives and Directors

• HR Professionals

• Recruiters

• HR and Training Managers

• Organizational Development Consultants

• Training Professionals & Instructional Designers

• Workforce Planners
