A Guide to Creating A Flexible Learning Environment: The Rise of the Learning Architects
Transforming Training explores a strategic approach that responds to today's environment of change and provides a way through the training maze.
This book is based on the authors' extensive experience. It explores the strategic arguments for developing a "learning architecture" in order to deliver a flexible learning environment.
Mackey and Livsey argue that developing an overall learning architecture can provide the structure in which opportunities can be fully optimized - whether this is achieved through in-house delivery, individual coaching or external courses - and deliver a training approach that is finely tuned to the organisation's specific needs.
It is a practical guide which includes advice on: -
organisations, learning and change;
managing the needs of learning;
traditional models for traditional organisations;
new learning architecture;
skills and qualities of a learning architect;
delivering training.
Real-life case studies and examples of successful learning structures bring about a new strategic and practical approach to workplace learning.
