Thales Learning & Development improves standards in training and development for 10 consecutive years
International learning and development organisation enters tenth year as LPI accredited learning provider.
The Learning & Performance Institute, the industry standard body for learning and development professionals, is pleased to announce that Thales Learning & Development (TLD) has entered its tenth year as an accredited learning provider.
Lyndon Wingrove, Director of Capabilities and Consulting at TLD, explains why this is so important to the business: “It is exciting for us to retain our LPI accreditation once again as recognition of the standard of workplace learning and development we provide,” he says. “It is important for all service providers to have that independent stamp of approval, and, for us, the LPI accreditation is an important one to show because not only is it a recognised standard in the industry today, but it can also be a requirement for many training tenders. “
While the LPI accreditation has been welcomed by TLD, and is an important marker of the work they have been doing, it also reflects their wider strategic aim: to continually better the way they do things and the services they provide.
“The value to us is not just the accreditation of where we are, but also the emphasis on improvement. Our relationship with LPI has also been part of the challenge for us to undertake a programme of continuous performance improvement and raise our standards both internally and to our external clients. This year we have made a lot of progress in a number of key areas, and the assessment with LPI has allowed us to demonstrate this and prove that the effort we've put in has been worth it. Now we will look at what to improve for next year.”
The LPI will present honorary crystals to TLD to celebrate the achievement of 10 years' continuous accreditation.
The crystals mark a decade of continually raising standards in training and development through the Institute's various accreditation programmes.
Commenting on the achievements Colin Steed, Chief Executive, LPI, said; “Maintaining accreditation for 10 years is a fantastic achievement. LPI accreditation is unique in the way it works with accredited companies to ensure that year-on-year they can evidence a raise in standards. For the internal departments and training organisations who have achieved these crystals they can look back over the past 10 years with a great deal of pride in how they have developed during that period, with the crystal a constant symbol of their success”
