More companies are realising the importance of upskilling their teams. It's no longer optional but a strategic imperative. In a conversation with TalentLMS, Sagar Goel of Boston Consulting Group (BCG) shared that 60% of companies are already reskilling their workforce.
Moreover, according to BCG, 76% of employees seek career advancement opportunities. So, it's clear that learning programs are not just about skill-building. They encourage employee retention and engagement.
Traditional, one-size-fits-all training solutions have their strengths but may not be ideal when you need to upskill a large team while managing tight budgets. Lumify Work’s custom training solutions, on the other hand, enable you to train the workforce at scale, drive organisational outcomes, and save time and money. With our solutions, you can achieve more with your training budget.
Custom training ensures your workforce is equipped to thrive—while giving you more bang for your spend and without breaking the bank. It's a smart and cost-effective solution.
Why Invest in Custom Training Solutions?
While off-the-shelf courses can help you address immediate training requirements, custom learning provides benefits like dynamic content, better branding and more. We share more details on the benefits:
Better Branding - Custom training integrates your company’s identity, values, and culture, delivering a seamless experience for learners while reinforcing your brand.
Personalised Learning - Tailored content means your employees get training that directly aligns with their roles, responsibilities and career goals. This level of personalisation boosts engagement. In fact, 77% of L&D professionals agree it’s vital to employee satisfaction. This is based on a survey by eLearning Industry at a Learning Technologies exhibition.
Targeted Objectives - While universal content has benefits, it may not address your organisation's specific needs. Custom solutions enable the creation of precise learning goals, ensuring employees gain actionable skills that directly impact group outcomes.
Hassle-free Maintenance - Tailor-made training systems simplify updates, allowing you to keep content fresh and relevant with minimal effort.
Long-Term Value - Your custom training content becomes a reusable asset, forming a resource library that grows with your organisation. So, you can maximise your investment.
What Makes the Best Custom Learning Providers Stand Out?
Learning and Development managers opt for custom training solutions to adapt specific learning needs. These programs improve employee performance and align with learning and business outcomes.
When looking for providers of custom learning solutions, look at these essential qualities that top organisations share:
Deep understanding of learning principles - With over 30 years of experience delivering ICT training, the Lumify Work team offers rich insights into learning. These insights are products of pedagogy as a discipline, data-driven reports, and student interactions.
Expertise in cutting-edge eLearning tools - As a leader in digital skilling, the team stays current with emerging technologies like artificial intelligence and how these can boost training outcomes when combined with eLearning tools.
The ability to turn real-world scenarios into interactive lessons - Besides holding the latest certifications, our trainers draw from their industry experiences as they guide students and craft educational content. This is crucial as the data shows the impact of custom interact learning solutions. 82% of enterprise workers revealed that interactive videos more effectively retain their attention than non-interactive videos, according to Kaltura.
Proven creativity and customer success stories - During your selection process, you can ask about case studies and testimonials that showcase a provider's ability to address your specific requirements. Lumify Work has collaborated with organisations in ANZ to design and deliver custom training solutions to staff.
By choosing the right partner, businesses achieve tailored training that delivers measurable results.
How Custom Training Solutions Providers Work
Effective providers of custom learning services take a consultative approach to assess and address your unique requirements. Different custom learning solutions may vary in planning, setting up and delivery phases.
With Lumify Work, in general, you can expect the process to involve these steps:
Employee Performance Analysis - This involves discussions and surveys to help us understand your team’s current capabilities and identify skill gaps.
Benchmarking and Goal Setting - We work with you to align training programs with business goals.
Content Development and Design - This involves storyboarding and content mapping. Whether for custom eLearning course development or custom learning design, our team collaborates closely with you. We work to ensure that every course we develop is engaging, relevant, and impactful for your workforce.
Flexibility for Diverse Workforces - We will explore solutions for remote and in-office employees and different learning modalities based on your requirements.
Mentoring and Coaching - Here, the provider's team implements schedules and frameworks for the long-term development of staff.
Real-World Results: The Missing Link Case Study
Lumify Work partnered with The Missing Link, an IT consulting and professional IT support services company, to deliver Copilot eLearning content and a white-label Learning Management System (LMS).
The Missing Link required a transition of their facilitator-led Copilot course to an interactive eLearning format to broaden their reach, as well as a customised white-label LMS to efficiently manage their training programs.
Lumify Work designed an engaging eLearning course using advanced instructional design and multimedia elements such as chatbots, graphics, videos, and interactive components. Additionally, we created a customised white-label LMS tailored to The Missing Link's branding and operational needs.
These solutions allowed The Missing Link to enhance the training of their employees and clients, aligning training programs with business objectives. This approach improved workforce proficiency and productivity while achieving significant cost savings. The white-label LMS provided a seamless, branded experience that streamlined training delivery and management.
This partnership highlights the transformative potential of tailored training solutions in achieving organisational goals.
How to Choose the Best Custom Training Partner for You
If you are exploring several custom learning design and systems partners, establishing a few internal parameters will guide you through your selection process.
Define your budget and goals. Organisations often opt for custom training solutions due to budgetary limitations. Understanding these limitations and what the company wants to achieve (from the mission critical items to the nice to haves) is essential.
Research and shortlist providers. You can review online resources. Publishing platforms like eLearning Industry and Learning News deliver industry-specific content to eLearning professionals and HR professionals. You can also check the websites of custom training providers, looking specifically for information on their services and customer reviews to see proven results.
Request for and evaluate proposals. You can launch a request for proposal (RFP), review proposals from prospective providers, and finalise the contract with your selected partner.
