Academy Design
The appropriate Learning & Development (L&D) strategy is crucial to ensure that your in-house academy is aligned with corporate and business objectives and is sustainably established in the organization. Therefore, we first conduct a so-called L&D Health Check, which identifies the potential of your corporate learning activities. Then, in close cooperation with decision-makers and management, we develop a target picture that describes the necessary competencies within the company, the strategic qualification goals, and the overall mission and positioning of your future academy. Taking into consideration the relevant organizational units and departments, we then develop a sound organizational design for the academy. A functioning key performance indicator system and performance management with defined KPIs ensure the positive effects on your business and the learning success of the participants and are at the same time important indicators for the effectiveness of your academy.
Learning & Training Landscape
For sustainably achieving the defined qualification goals, we develop a comprehensive learning and training landscape of the in-house academy, which is ideally aligned with the skills development of the respective target groups and roles in your company. After conducting skill gap analyses, we create specific learning journeys with suitable learning formats for your employees as well as the corresponding training documents and learning materials. A mix of contemporary learning forms and methods (blended learning), such as training-on-the-job, social learning combined with classic learning formats such as workshops or e-learning, ensures sustainable competence development in your company. The use of digital learning technologies supports an innovative end-to-end learning ecosystem. This includes, among other things, the implementation or integration of learning management systems as well as the development and implementation of innovative learning media such as virtual and augmented reality.
Operational Delivery
In line with our end-to-end approach, we support you not only in the design and ramp-up of your in-house academy, but also in the implementation of all learning and training measures during the pilot phase – and beyond, if required. In doing so, we draw on specifically created learning media and material for both online formats and face-to-face learning. Our experienced trainer team and broad network of partners ensure reliable delivery and scalability of the desired training services. Our focus is on the learning success of the participants. For ensuring a sustainable knowledge transfer and development of your own resources for the ongoing operation of your academy, we qualify employees within your company through systematic training and onboarding in the sense of a train-the-trainer approach. You benefit from the comprehensive knowledge, industry experience and internationality of our trainers, who are all experts in their field.
Operational Management
The successful operation of a learning and training environment requires active management and practiced processes that ensure a smooth flow from planning and implementation to evaluation and completion of the learning and training measures. Together with you, we create transparent and efficient processes as the basis for the professional operation of your in-house academy, and we support you in ramping up your academy organization. In addition to managing internal and external resources, this also includes ensuring continuous performance tracking and reporting to internal stakeholders as well as effective internal communication and marketing of the academy offering. Beyond the initial set-up of these processes, we also support the ongoing operation of your in-house academy in terms of managed training services, which includes, for example, training and participant management. In this way, you benefit from the outsourcing of selected operational tasks.
