Hello (and happy new year),
I am trying to build a European Learning and Development Strategy for our newly formed L&D department and was wondering if any of you could share or make recommendation on an appropriate format/content for this document please?
As a draft, these are the points that I have in mind:
- Overview :
- Purpose, approach & scope (alignment with Org. vision & strategy + HR strategy)
- Objectives
- Stakeholders & systems (Learning page in the internal page, ...)
- Guiding principles (ADDIE model)
- High level description and Service Level Agreement (services and timing)
- Critical factors:
- Assumptions (support from management, etc...)
- Risks
- Implementation:
- Detailed approach
- Methodology
- Evaluation:
- Approach
- Measurements (KPIs and timing etc...)
Any thoughts or advices ?
Thank you very much
Gaelle

Assumptions can prove tricky
The outline looks good, but the example of assumptions you note is a problem. Many programs fail due to lack of support or buy-in from senior line managers. Rather than assume you will have it, there needs to be a specific strategy for how to get it. I would suggest this for other assumptions, too. It's a very good idea to try to list assumptions, but then you need to figure out how to assure they are correct or will come to happen.
