L&D Practitioners Network Thursday 11 September 2014
Measuring effectiveness and impacts of L&D interventions
Our September meeting was kindly hosted by Mines Advisory Group (MAG) in their offices in Manchester – a suggestion from colleagues at Retrak and MAG to host an event “up North” which has proven to be a great initiative to be repeated! We were warmly welcomed by MAG CEO, Nick Roseveare, and enjoyed a presentation over lunch on their demining action.
The key learnings and reflections from our discussions are captured in a blog from Em Lacroix available on the People In Aid website: http://www.peopleinaid.org/news/579.aspx Key slides from Paula Haddock from Intrac’s presentation are available to download from the L&D Network Resources page. Slide 8 in particular offers a good summary of where good practice starts: http://www.peopleinaid.org/resources/learninganddevelopment Additional resources and links that may be of interest from this meeting:
• Retrak: http://www.retrak.org/ • MAG: http://www.maginternational.org/ • Intrac: http://www.intrac.org/ • Regarding the topic of our meeting, please do check INTRAC’s papers on M&E:

Annexes • Sharing training opportunities between members
As members of the L&D network regularly have spare places on training courses they organise, we have agreed that offers to join these courses would be sent to Em at People In Aid to share them with the group. • Future themes As always the meeting themes are member-‐led and any suggestions for speakers or volunteers to present to the group are very welcome. So we are looking forward to hearing from you J. From your most recent feedback, here are the themes you proposed for future meetings:
• Psychometrics. • Communities of Practice: How do we establish them and most of all maintain them? Connecting
and creative platforms for allowing staff to connect. • Understand and measure the impact of training and learning (on individuals and on organisations)
and demonstrate effectiveness (tools, etc.). • How to foster social learning especially with a geographically dispersed staff. • Neuroscience. • Experiential learning and online learning, e.g. developing simulations. • Organisational resilience. • Internal coaching and mentoring programmes within INGOs. • Change management and changing behaviour. • Opportunities for collaboration: are there topics agencies can work on together?
If you are interested in sharing/presenting on any of these (or others), please let us know! We also would like to see more resources being shared, and more case studies and problem-‐solving discussions (i.e. L&D Surgery): please do email Em with your suggestions and any issues you would like to share with the community so this can be used to inform the agenda and/or be added to the Market Place.
