The Need

Learning & Development (L&D) and other training professionals are strategically important in today’s biopharma company. They must design, develop and implement learning solutions that drive behavior change, enabling employees to achieve business goals. Frequently constrained by time, effective training must be delivered with clear and measurable results.

With the ever-increasing pressure to “upskill,” it’s no surprise that L&D professionals sometimes find themselves with gaps in their ability to:

  • Think critically and creatively to innovate learning solutions
  • Apply adult learning principles and evidence-based cognitive science to learning design
  • Strategically collaborate and communicate with all stakeholders
  • Evaluate the impact of learning experiences on business results

Trainer Academy is a multi-session, fully virtual program that is designed to:

  • Help L&D professionals fill these gaps
  • Apply best practices to learning design and stakeholder engagement
  • Become better strategic partners to the broader organization

Intended Learner Audience(s)

L&D professionals, including instructional designers, trainers, leaders and others tasked with designing, developing and implementing learning solutions throughout the entire organization.
