L&D delivery

L&D delivery

This subtopic contains information and guidance to assist with embedding learning and development (L&D) in your firm, different approaches to L&D and writing and delivering training courses.

Embedding learning and development (L&D)

L&D is often viewed as a standalone function that is detached from the day-to-day running of the firm. For it to deliver maximum value for money, it needs to be an integral part of the business. To do that it must:

•
be clearly aligned with the business strategy, eg L&D goals need to filter down to department and individual level
•
engage with employees on an individual level, eg give them transparency and control over their learning
•
produce measurable results, eg progress measured via the appraisals process and performance development plans
