(…apart from the fact that we’re really nice people, of course….)
Ask your average person about Learning and Development and they’ll most likely look at you blankly and wander off in a tryst of terminal boredom. Ask the average person who ‘runs the training’ in their company and they’ll probably shrug and say ‘someone on the second floor, I think’, or something equally non-committal. Our industry is not a glamorous one.
That said the days when L&D was run by an over-burdened admin (probably called Marjory) in a cobwebby broom cupboard are long gone. L&D is no longer about getting 10 employees from Huddersfield to Darlington for a first aid course in the cheapest possible way….

I have written about the values of MLS (managed learning services) enough in this blog over the past year, but I thought it might be worth highlighting six reasons why they are not boring, and why you should consider Optimus Learning Services before our competitors!
1 – We understand the L&D supplier market – we know who to use, who to avoid and which suppliers will be the right fit for your company
2 – We save you time an extensive range of training in a range of formats for our clients – so you don’t have to. Which naturally, allows you to find something less boring to do instead.
3 – We help move your Learning Strategy forward – Focus your newly found time on developing and driving forward the strategic learning plan. Leave the operational and daily management of learning to our experienced customer support team.
4 – Enhance employee performance and productivity – Providing the right learning solutions address employee needs and improve their performance. If you increase employee happiness you increase retention rates amongst staff.
5 – Achieve ROI on your Learning – From designing effective learning solutions through to measuring the effectiveness of the solution.
6 – We save you money – There, that’s not boring is it? Clients who receive our full managed learning services see reductions in learning costs between 16% and 25%.

Outsourcing your L&D makes sense for so many reasons, I almost bore myself by explaining them but if you’d like to chat to one of our experienced team on how Optimus Learning Services can help you, please see the details at the bottom of this piece.
