CPD programmes

“ I am interested in developing a CPD programme for our L&D professionals”

Excellent! Many employers have a blind spot when it comes to investing in their trainers' skills. There can be no better ROI on training than from investing in the skills of the trainer!  When you train a retail assistant, storeman or computer programmer, you will only improve one person’s performance. Invest in a trainer and the potential for improvement increases 100-fold!

Aside from that, developing your trainers builds morale and improves retention because trainers feel valued and re-energised when their organisation invests in them. It's also essential: the L&D environment is complex and will become even more so over the next decade!

Many trainers have had no further development since their original certification, generally a certificate in training practice, some years previous. Largely focused on theory and delivered through colleges (with inconsistent approaches) this does not guarantee training standards.

The TAP Learning System provides an independently assessed range of modular, ongoing developmental courses for the CPD of all in learning and development roles. Its short-courses can be closely aligned with individual and business needs and taken on a just-in-time, as needed, basis. All are skills-based, hence will directly influence the quality of subsequent L&D events.

So give your trainers an allowance of CPD days to develop the skills and abilities to meet your business needs!  It would be the best L&D investment you could make....
