“Learning partners are expensive and won’t fit in our budget.”
While many people believe a learning partner is an expense their organization can’t afford, that’s not always the case. As learning partners, we are used to working with budgets of all sizes. We utilize our expertise to help you determine where our services can provide the best ROI. This may mean taking on projects that require skills you may not have in-house, or partnering with your L&D department to help you roll out initiatives quicker and more efficiently, saving time and money in the long run.
“Our in-house team can handle everything a learning partner does.”
While your in-house L&D group is vital, it’s quite possible they’re lacking the time, resources, or specialized expertise needed to tackle all of your organization’s learning needs. A learning partner can help fill the gaps, along with bringing fresh ideas, new methodologies, and a deep understanding of the science of learning. We don’t replace your team, we enhance their abilities, letting them focus on what they do best!
“Learning partners don’t understand our industry.”
Believe it or not, learning partners are experts. The beauty of partnering with a learning partner is you have access to their network of SMEs with experience in a variety of industries, tools, cultural, and brand awareness. It’s our job to get to know your organization. From the challenges you face to the terminology you use, org charts to company culture… we are pros at holding discovery sessions to fully understand your needs. We weave industry-relevant case studies and storytelling throughout our learning to ensure the training resonates with your audience. We also offer cross-industry insights that can inspire new approaches to training.
“It will take too long to implement or see results.”
Learning partners are experts at getting things done quickly. A proven learning partner’s project framework allows them to run projects quickly and efficiently. Providing a project manager trained specifically in running learning projects ensures common pitfalls are avoided. When you add in an on-demand team that is ready to go and includes a highly skilled group of instructional designers, graphic designers, video editors, and quality control reviewers, and more… we can work on multiple tasks in tandem to get things done quickly! A partner can also work with you to recommend a phased approach to help you roll out your initiatives in ways you may not have considered.
“We have AI, why would we need a learning partner?”
There’s no debate that AI is a powerful tool, but it can’t replace the strategic thinking of a learning partner. While AI can provide basic scenarios or analyze data, a skilled partner takes these things to the next level, ensuring they meet your organization’s training needs and strategic goals. A partner brings the storytelling, emotion, and human touch that brings learning to life – something AI simply can’t replicate yet.
