February 12, 2015− KnowledgePool wins a £3m, three year contract to design, supply, and implement a transformational Managed Learning Service for one of the UK’s leading insurance businesses.
This flagship company has appointed KnowledgePool as its principle provider of learning services. KnowledgePool will act as their Managed Service Provider (MSP), managing all learning activity and operations through a single channel to maximize return on their training investments and ultimately improve the performance of its employees.
As one of the UK’s leading insurance businesses with multiple brands, products and distribution channels, learning and development (L&D) is invaluable to them. With this in mind, all external training for their 13,900 UK employees, will be sourced, managed, administered and evaluated by KnowledgePool, freeing up their in-house L&D team to focus on the more value-added and strategic tasks. This flexible and secure partnership will enable this new client to increase their effectiveness and maximize their L&D budget.
Solution highlights include:
- Independent training procurement objectively advising on best-of-breed solutions, negotiated with consistent terms and preferential rates to save money
- Efficient learning administration, providing a one-stop-shop specialist technology, including the people and processes necessary for consistent data capture and reporting
- 70:20:10 ‘ethos’ providing professional advice and guidance to encourage the use of informal and blended learning
- Using learning analytics expertise to make sense of the activity and evaluation data collated to provide learning optimization with future activity
“We will help to streamline processes, save costs and ensure the business has the learning and development that’s required. It’s a mutually beneficial relationship,” said Russell Kenrick, business development director at KnowledgePool.
“This is a great way to start the year and we are extremely proud to be partnering with another flagship company,” said Al Bird, managing director at KnowledgePool. “Our success is testament to the passion and enthusiasm of our people combined with our unique and highly-effective approach to managed learning.”
This new contract further adds to KnowledgePool’s flagship client list which also includes Aviva, EE and Virgin Media.
