Learning and development (L&D) refers to the process of enhancing the knowledge, skills, and competencies of employees through training, development programmes, and other learning opportunities.
It is vital to understand the current and future capability needs of the organisation, as well as how to create a culture that drives engagement in continuous professional development.
Improving the skills of your staff is vital and will deliver huge business benefits. It can increase their productivity, motivation and quality of work, and boost overall business profits and customer satisfaction.
