The fourth Towards Maturity 2010 benchmark review has launched today at the Learning and Skills group event, Olympia London with outstanding support from the wider Learning & Development industry.
The benchmark is now considered the most comprehensive, independent and authoritative review on the use of Learning Technologies in the workplace in the UK. The 2010 benchmark represents a unique industry collaboration reflected by endorsements from 16 organisations, including Institute of IT Training, BILD, e-Learning Network, Business in the Community, the Learning & Skills group, ELIG, TrainingZone, Training Journal as well as e-Learning age magazine to ensure that this benchmark meets employer needs across all sectors.
All those responsible for implementing learning technologies in the workplace who are under pressure to accelerate their impact are invited to get involved during the coming months.
"In 2010 organisations are looking to technology to help deliver efficiencies and improve quality of learning. By investing 40 minutes in this impartial review, participants in the benchmark will be provided with individualised feedback that will help them accelerate change in 2010 and improve the impact of their investment," explains Laura Overton, Managing Director of Towards Maturity.
To date over 800 organisations from the private, public and not for profit sectors have participated in this research resulting in a compelling evidence base showing how to improve the impact of learning technologies in the workplace. All new participants in the 2010 review will have the opportunity to benchmark their own progress against established practice and receive a personalised report with practical advice (value £200) for free.
The benchmark closes on 31 July 2010 with the first results expected by end of September. Follow progress on Twitter at #TMB10. To find out more and take part visit: www.towardsmaturity.org/2010benchmark.
