If your organisation is based in England or Scotland then you may well have the opportunity to develop your staff via funding outside of the Apprenticeship Levy.

The Adult Education budget is a great way of funding learning and development pathways by using approved knowledge based qualifications to upskill your staff. With qualifications ranging from 10-16 weeks to complete, they are a great alternative to a more intensive Apprenticeship programme. This webinar will cover; 

  • What the Adult Education Budget is
  • The range of qualifications available
  • How this funding stream differs from the Apprenticeship levy
  • How staff can qualify for funding
  • Distance learning – utilising online learning to maximise efficiency of time and engagement
  • How to use the qualifications as part of your learning and development strategy.

James Earl is responsible for helping The Skills Network’s customers to develop engaging and efficient learning and development strategies across the globe.

James’ background in Marketing and Communications has seen him work internally with HR departments to help launch learning and development tactics and create a culture of success.

Joining The Skills Network in 2012, James is part of the senior leadership team, overseeing year on year growth, with over 30,000 funded learners a year and over 500,000 users of their online learning on multiple countries.

Making personalized, collaborative learning a reality 
Joel Hellermark, CEO & Founder, Sana Labs 
 
Collaboration and personalisation are two trends that dominate contemporary thinking about workplace learning. 
 
Collaborative learning involves synchronous, interactive live sessions with groups of learners, and is powered by social dynamics and community. 
 
Personalization focuses on self-paced instruction that responds to the unique needs of every learner, and is powered and scaled by AI. 
 
Is it possible to combine these two? According to Joel it is. In this session, he will explore what it means to combine these two approaches in entirely new ways—using social dynamics to increase engagement while responding to each learner’s needs to improve learning outcomes. Join us to explore the exciting possibilities of personalized, collaborative learning.
