Ask yourself – how can you as a Learning &
Development professional guarantee business outcomes after your training
programs?
What has to happen in your organisation to get change post learning?
![Page 3: The Why & Who of Learning Transfer](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/58f34d0b1a28ab0e188b460d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Why? Because only
10-20% of learning is transferred back to the workplace
![Page 4: The Why & Who of Learning Transfer](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/58f34d0b1a28ab0e188b460d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
ONLY 25%
In the 2010 McKinsey report ‘Getting more from your Training Programs’ what percentage of managers surveyed believed training programs
measurably improved business results’?

Don’t put your head in the sand!

Often in professional L&D roles we are hiding from McKinsey’s statistic.
We are using metrics like “number of people attending training” or “number of hours trained” and not actually being brave enough to look at what we need to be saying -
“what are the RESULTS from our training?”

Transfer of learning is the missing link in learning.
Why has it been missing for so long?

There is no ownership
![Page 11: The Why & Who of Learning Transfer](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062523/58f34d0b1a28ab0e188b460d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

THE BUSINESS
This is what is happening at the moment with ownership – learning transfer falls into the hands of the business, who often don’t have the time or skills to deliver .

LEARNING & DEVELOPMENT
THE BUSINESS
Collectively we need to shift the ownership of learning transfer so that L&D are much more involved in the results that the business is getting.

Where do L&D put their effort?
Before During After
More often than not more effort is put into the before and during piece, and then dwindles after the learning event. This needs to change! Training is not the end point but the start point to create change.
