Does your organization need a learning and development roadmap

If you have answered Yes, to any of the questions you would probably need some level of L&D planning.

Leveraging gumboot learning to create a hybrid learning model ... HOW?

ONBOARDING NEW EMPLOYEES ACROSS MULTIPLE LOCATIONS.

In-person training is logistically complex and expensive.

Solution: Implement a hybrid eLearning model combining virtual onboarding modules with in-person sessions.

  • eLearning Component: Self-paced online courses cover company policies, culture, and compliance training.
  • In-Person Component: Localized workshops or team-building activities for practical skill application and peer interaction.

Outcome: Consistent, scalable onboarding experience that reduces costs and fosters employee engagement.

UPSKILLING EMPLOYEES IN A RAPIDLY CHANGING INDUSTRY.

But not all employees can attend on-site workshops due to different time zones or work schedules.

Solution: Use a hybrid eLearning approach with virtual training modules and optional on-site boot camps.

  • eLearning Component: Interactive online modules with case studies, simulations, and assessments.
  • In-Person Component: Focused workshops or hackathons to apply the skills learned online.

Outcome: Employees gain both theoretical and hands-on expertise, enabling the organization to stay competitive.

ADDRESSING COMPLIANCE TRAINING FOR A DISTRIBUTED WORKFORCE.

Tracking completion rates and understanding remain inconsistent.

Solution: Deploy compliance training through a hybrid model.

  • eLearning Component: Online modules on regulations, with quizzes and certifications for completion tracking.
  • In-Person Component: Periodic town halls or team meetings to address complex compliance scenarios through discussions and Q&A.

Outcome: Efficient compliance training with higher completion rates and deeper understanding through supplemental in-person discussions.

THE ORGANIZATION STRUGGLES TO DELIVER A UNIFIED LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM. 

Addresses both foundational and advanced leadership skills.


Solution:
Adopt a hybrid learning model for leadership training.

  • eLearning Component: Core modules on communication, delegation, and conflict resolution tailored to each leadership level.
  • In-Person Component: Workshops or retreats for experiential learning, role-playing, and networking with peers.

Outcome: Leaders develop skills systematically and build connections across hierarchical levels, enhancing cross-functional collaboration and team management.

Gumboot Learning & development Approach

1

Define Organizational Objectives & Conduct a Needs Analysis

Understand the organization’s short-term and long-term goals. Identify how L&D can support achieving these objectives. Identify skill gaps, learning needs, and performance challenges through various methods.

2

Segment the Audience & Set Clear Learning Objectives

Categorize employees based on roles, levels, and functions to tailor the learning strategy. Define what the organization aims to achieve through L&D. Ensure objectives are SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-bound).

3

Choose the Learning Approach – eLearning, Instructor led etc

Decide on the methods and formats that best meet the needs of employees and the organization.
– eLearning: For scalable, self-paced learning.
– Workshops/Instructor-Led – Training: For hands-on or team-based learning.
– Hybrid Learning Models: A mix of online and in-person training.
– Coaching and Mentoring: For personalized development.

4

Develop the Content and Resources & Assess Technology

Create or source learning materials that are relevant, engaging, and accessible. Use Learning Management Systems (LMS) and tools to streamline delivery, tracking, and feedback.

5

Implement and Roll Out & Measure and Evaluate Effectiveness

Start with a pilot program, gather feedback, and refine before a full rollout. Track the impact of the L&D initiatives and make improvements as needed.
