Services from Margaret & Associates

Our corporate learning and development services

With our range of strategy, solutions and support services, our associates are here to help you transform your organisation’s learning and development provision.

“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent. It is the one that is most adaptable to change.”

Consultation

Successful corporate training requires careful planning.

Through a series of meetings, our experienced associates will review your existing training plans and identify how these can be streamlined to meet your company’s strategic objectives.

We can then recommend bespoke solutions to match the needs and goals of your business and your employees. 

Learning design

Companies can spend significant sums of money annually on training and skills development, so it’s important to maximise its impact. 

With their expertise in culture, wellbeing and personal development, as well as instructional design, our associates will design high-quality and engaging content for you, incorporating industry best practice.

Training and coaching delivery

With our pool of experienced trainers and coaches, this is the heart of what we do. 

In addition to intact courses for employees at a single organisation, we also provide a range of open access options.

The courses we offer are designed with our new Covid reality in mind. Delivered online only, thanks to our global team of associates they are available across all time zones. 

Through our transformative coaching services we help people achieve their goals, perform better and find more meaning in what they do.

Training project management

We understand the nuances and complexities training projects can involve. We’ll work alongside you through every stage to ensure the training you provide your staff meets your organisational milestones and business priorities. We’ll manage the costs, timing, scope and quality of the provision throughout. 

You can leave the operational and daily management of learning and development to our experienced team. We’re committed to doing things your way, not ours, seamlessly integrating our process with yours for minimal disruption.

We’ll help you move your learning strategy forward, freeing up time and mental space for you.

Outsourced learning administration

Getting the administration right is a key aspect of transforming your organisation’s learning and development function.

Our experienced associates will consult with you to develop a bespoke administration solution that matches your needs and approach. 

We’ll also address administrative inefficiencies, for example by eliminating duplication of training and making sure the appropriate learning approaches are used to meet your team’s development needs.

Helping you boost your training provision

We’ll work with you to identify the need for additional training within your organisation and any existing courses that need changes. We can then help you plan your annual training schedule, making it a smooth and seamless experience for everyone involved.

If you need to source additional training providers, we can handle that for you, becoming a single point of contact for all your training suppliers. We understand the market, so know who to use, who to avoid and which suppliers will be the right fit for your company. We can often negotiate cost-effective rates, resulting in savings for you.

Learning management system administration

For smaller organisations and others without a dedicated learning management system (LMS), we can provide you with all the benefits of your own platform without the overheads. We’ll manage everything for you, using the system to co-ordinate booking of trainers, scheduling of courses, virtual classroom set-up and more.

For more established organisations with an inhouse LMS, we can take over the administration for you, offering day-to-day operational and learner support.

Our team is experienced in working with a variety of LMS platforms. By resolving functionality issues and enforcing high quality standards, we’ll ensure your LMS is operating at maximum efficiency. We’ll also make sure that it’s generating analytics that will enable you to monitor the effectiveness of the training you provide.

Our overall aim is to provide support to make a tangible difference to your learning processes.
