The future L&D team: Essential skills and emerging roles

In our fast-changing world we cannot assume that traditional L&D skills and roles will deliver the learning that organisations require. An increased demand to drive performance and leverage digital solutions requires L&D teams to reconsider their skills and strategies.

CIPD’s new Profession Map defines an updated foundation for L&D professionals. You can join Andy Lancaster, CIPD’s Head of L&D Content at his session which will explore essential knowledge and behaviours and new roles for future-focused L&D teams;

  • What it means to be professional in L&D
  • Explore foundational knowledge and behaviour for L&D teams
  • Define key areas in which L&D must achieve a shift in practice
  • Highlight some emerging L&D roles

The Future L&D team: Essential skills and emerging roles will be taking place on 13th February, 11:45 – 12:15 in Theatre 7. 

The power of a growth mindset

Implementing a growth mindset approach can mean the difference between a learning culture that’s pushed and one that’s driven by the individuals. Growth mindset is a buzz term often used to describe the way an organisation wants their culture to be, but how do you genuinely implement a growth mindset? How do you support individuals recognising what a growth mindset is, through to seeing genuine behaviour change?

You can join Virtual College’s Growth Mindset Expert and Content Development Manager, Sarah Baker alongside Learning Technology Consultant, Dan Nolan on 13th February, 13:15 – 13:45 in Theatre 6 to find out more.

Sarah and Dan will be demonstrating how a growth mindset can be achieved by discussing;

  • What do we mean by growth mindset versus fixed mindset
  • The theory behind this approach
  • What this means for how you engage learners to self-drive this behaviour
  • How you can use educational technology tools and resources to drive this
  • Practical take away tips to start embedding this in your organisation.
