The Quality Learning Function Review

The Problem Is!

• Information that is needed for driving business results by improving return on learning investment is restricted through lack of relevant data
• There are hidden operating inefficiencies
• People management and development processes and practices are disengaging employees
• Cost-effectiveness of employee training and learning activity's impact on performance is not fully coordinated
• Collective impact of learning investment is not integrated with performance improvement
• Senior management confidence in the management of learning and HR functions is variable
• There is a need to prove the impact of learning and the training and development function contribution to performance
• Internal audit capability is not equipped to fully investigate and advise learning and development specialists

Which Results In!

• Unnecessary and unaccounted for costs
• Investment in learning activity including training and development is being wasted
• There is duplicated activity
• There are inefficient processes
• Training is not impacting on performance
• There is a lack of sustained impact and change from training and development activity
• There is poor governance of learning investment and management of people risks
• Unproductive audit time
