Discover the secret to winOf course you do what you love most: develop training that really makes a difference and really helps people to learn. It’s time to reveal the secrets to winning in the training realm with this e-book: ‘Successful training companies put the learner first’. What can you expect in the download:<ul><li>Ten (award-winning) training providers and learning experts on their vision and the importance of this focus.</li><li>Really find out what your learner needs and how to leverage that. </li><li>Three guiding principles for successful training. </li></ul>

An extreme focus on the learner ensures that you always provide a challenge, which leads to good learning results. But how do you do that? With this e-book you will learn how to ensure satisfied customers, satisfied learners and how to stand out from other training providers.

Extreme focus on the learner

1. Really understand what your learner needs In this e-book, we explore the theory that many learning problems will be solved by AI in the future. So what remains, and where the training provider comes in, are the hard-to-solve problems that require a deep understanding of the learner.2. Help translate theory into improved performance in practice It is important to translate the theory during training into practice. This makes your training much more relevant because it contributes to your business objectives. This is due to more motivation, better performance and engagement among your learners.3. Partner in talent development by linking training to business goals L&amp;D decision-makers today are looking for a partner in talent development that helps influence the business outcome. This way, a sustainable relationship is created that leads to growth, as satisfied (and successful) customers spread the word to others who are also looking for success.

Megan Torrance

- If your project sponsor can&#039;t attend the first meetings, ask yourself: is this project important enough? Buy-in from your key stakeholders is essential for making a project successful, as is their involvement. Make sure you continuously challenge them on this.- Involve your target audience from the very beginning of your project. Don&#039;t wait until the end when you&#039;ve already invested lots of time in development. No, much earlier. This is the only way you can properly test, improve and implement.- A MVP (Minimum Viable Product) really is an MVP. No fancy illustrations, no large video productions, no complete e-learning modules. Keep it simple, so you can make changes quickly. Because one thing is certain: things will change.

Some takeaways from the masterclass

In this self-paced masterclass you'll learn how to design training that is easily changed and thus more resilient. Invite change, plan for it, and harness it for the benefit of your learners.
