5OS02: You are a learning and development consultant who has been contracted by a relatively large organisation: Advances in digital learning and development Report, UK

You are a learning and development consultant who has been contracted by a relatively large organisation that, in the past, outsourced its L&D function. It is now looking to expand its in-house L&D offering and is keen to utilise the new learning technologies that are available. You have effectively been given a ‘clean sheet’ in which to work from, as the only people directly involved will be you and a newly appointed L&D Manager.

The task, as described by the People Director in their Annual Plan to the Board, is to look at how the organisation can “do L&D differently and deliver to the masses”.

For Task 1, you have been asked to create a presentation to be delivered at the organisation’s Annual Conference, which will be attended by all senior leaders and managers of the organisation. Your presentation will introduce them to the concepts of ‘Digital Learning & Development Transformation’.
