What are the Quality Awards?
What are the Quality Awards?
An official recognition of your commitment to embrace Learning, Engagement & Change into the long term.
These Awards have been designed to give individuals, teams and organisations the opportunity to show their commitment to their intention to developing a culture of Learning & Engagement into the long term.
A true Continual Learning Culture takes time to develop and this can only be done with integrity and true intent.
With these Awards you are illustrating that you are committed to developing a culture of reflection, review and continual learning, as well as implementing the required processes to developing and maintaining long term change.
Bronze Award – Needs Analysis
Whatever challenges you are facing, the Needs Analysis will provide a best practice fresh eyes review and provide the information and data we need to understand your current situation. We can then address your key issues and design your bespoke solutions to create the Learning Culture, the Success Habits and the impact and results you desire.
Silver Award – Designing your bespoke Solution
Designing the solution that is right for you is key to your success.
The design of your unique solution is about planning a solution for long term success. It therefore needs to ensure that we are addressing the root causes of your challenges, maximising your learning, and that we consider all the essential factors. We need to have clear success criteria and to ensure that all the stakeholders are involved so that we are maximising success and minimising and mitigating risks in our plan and design. This ensures we are doing all we can to succeed, and to plan for your desired impact.
The Gold Award - Implementation & Monitoring of your unique Learning & Development Solution
This is when the implementation of the design comes to life. Whatever shape your solutions take, whether online, face to face or both, we will need to work together to ensure that the implementation can happen as best as possible with minimum disruption to your everyday business as usual. Inevitably, there will be change and adaptation and this always involves working together collaboratively to achieve the best processes and results. We need to ensure that we deliver your unique programmes so that stakeholders are involved in an optimum manner and ensuring a stress free and engaging learning environment.
Crucially, we also need to incorporate ongoing monitoring and review into your programmes so that the learning is embedded and does not get lost. In our short term memory, we forget those things that are not reviewed or applied; after some time we develop habits where learning becomes more ingrained into our long term memory and is less likely to get lost. However, then we need to ensure that we continue to be conscious and aware thinkers, rather than just automatic habit machines. This is where the need for agility comes in. We need to ensure that our implementation aims to build new Success Habits, whilst also encouraging agility and embracing of inevitable change.
The Platinum Award - Sustained Impact of your Learning & Development Solution
Designing the solution that is right for you is key to your success.
In order to develop a Continual Learning Culture, behaviours need to be reinforced and clear expectations need to become the norm. Sustained impact is when we have worked together and you have taken the responsibility to apply the processes, strategies and approaches over time so that they have become embedded and part of your business processes, ensuring that they are becoming regular and routine.

Why have we developed the Investors in Learning Quality Awards?
Why have we developed the Investors in Learning Quality Awards?
We have designed the Investors in Learning Quality Awards to provide individuals, teams and organisations with a structured process, the core content, and the quality ingredients that will focus on and drive your long term success. Our aim is to develop humans that know and apply Success Habits, whilst remaining agile and adaptable; able to effectively manage and navigate our fast changing world.
Human Psychology research has shown us without a doubt that we are patterning machines. We create patterns and then we stick to them. In order for long term change to happen and to become embedded, we know that we need to break some patterns so we can develop new ones. In other words we need to develop new habits,. We call these Success Habits. In order to develop these, we need to develop commitment and discipline.
No change happens unless we are dedicated and believe in the change we are wishing to create and maintain. We also know that as soon as we are under pressure, we will slip back into the old more established patterns. So we need a supportive framework that keeps us repeating the positive Success Habits that we wish to create and maintain into the long term, with the aim that these will be stronger than the original habits. In today’s fast pace of change we need to be able to adapt successfully, so we also need to apply agility rather than rigidity. So we need to be able to navigate this paradox. We need to be able to monitor, control and self-regulate so that we apply the right behaviours dynamically in any given context. So we need Success Habits, but rather than getting stuck, we also always have to remember the need to be agile and not become fixed into a rigid pattern of behaviours.
This framework is designed with all these concepts in mind and honours the human learning process so that we support you as individuals, teams and whole organisations to develop new learning whilst also learning to continually monitor in order to develop robust resilience and agility.
