Course Overview

Data on internal training academies is abundant; insight about it is not. Most disputes about the people management and development capability begin as a conversation that was handled badly. Teams frequently over-invest in documenting this part of people management and development and under-invest in testing it. It suits anyone whose decisions touch internal training academies, in large organisations and small ones alike. Field experience suggests that the barrier to better the wider people management and development agenda is rarely technical. It establishes a shared vocabulary for this strand of people management and development so that teams can disagree productively about it. Every module pairs a short input on internal training academies with structured practice on the participant's own material. The outcome is a practitioner who can hold a position on the people management and development capability and revise it on evidence. The course ends by identifying what the participant will stop doing to make this area of people management and development sustainable.
