Using your apprenticeship levy smartly and other funded training opportunities – with a digital touch

Damian Lythgoe, Head of Business Development, The Skills Network

This webinar will concentrate on how employers can solve their learning and development challenges, whether this using their apprenticeship levy funding effectively, using blended learning to meet job training requirements or utilising funding streams outside of Apprenticeships. We will explore:

  • Cost saving – using funding outside apprenticeships to upskill staff
  • The levy – using the apprenticeship levy pot for performance impact and a return on investment
  • Using blended learning to flexibly meet the levy's 20% off-the-job training requirement
  • The importance of management information and learner tracking 
  • Learning technology – the use of micro-learning to upskill staff cost-efficiently

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.
