Learning Services
Davies &Jones provide clients with a complete end user solution, from defining the
training strategy during pre-delivery, to supplying multi-lingual trainers during
delivery, and finally supporting users post-delivery, encompassing all phases of
the training project lifecycle. Davies & Jones have a proven track record of delivering
training solutions to large organisations world-wide.
Pre-Delivery – At this stage of the process Davies & Jones quickly gain a detailed
awareness of the issues clients face in their projects, recommending and implementing
proven strategies and providing best practices to keep the project on time and within
budget. Pre-delivery includes:
- Conducting a training needs analysis
- Designing a training strategy
- Developing quality documentation
Delivery – Davies & Jones’ trainers are subject matter experts on many of the IT
industry standard system applications. Trainers will become conversant with a client’s
business processes and incorporate these into the training delivery, ensuring an
effective transference of knowledge from the training room back to the workplace
and ultimately a highly successful implementation programme. This stage may include
all or a combination of the following delivery methods:
- Instructor Led Training
- ELearning
- Web-Based Training
- Train the Trainer
Post Delivery - The post delivery stage is the most important phase of any system
deployment as the real challenge is when the users are faced with the task of integrating
their learning into their every day work. Davies & Jones will implement and manage
a post-delivery service to support the users during the “change” and to drive the
business objectives forward, as the measurement of success to the business is when
the new knowledge is implemented. This stage includes:
- User Support Programs
- User Surveys/Feedback
- Technical Liaison
