Companies can spend huge amounts of time and money putting together the most complex and detailed training plan for their business.
At The Burns Unit tlc we believe in pragmatism and adamant that getting it 80% right and doing is 100% better than getting it 100% right and never doing a thing!
So I've shared my basic template for putting a plan together. It assumes a good understanding of the organisation, its culture and it's learning needs.
It is then a useful template to put that into a simple presentation that your board will g.. you that makes sense... do it
Or simply get in touch and we can give you hand!

3. 1. Background and observations
? XXXXX has a strong commitment to Learning and
Development and continues to make a signi?cant
investment in this area
? The Burns Unit tlc has been asked to develop a
Training Plan for 20XX that equips the business with
new skills.
? Also the plan should endeavour to foster a greater
feeling of one team by creating opportunities for
shared learning across departments

people across the business that creates an impact
and make L&D a force for XXXXXXXX
? Look to blend the L&D delivery with outside
providers, our partners and with internal
inspirational leaders
4. Initial observations and themes
? The Past: 20XX proved to be a year of great change
with a new management team, some great new
business wins and an enhanced focus on the
business and the people
? The Present: A program for de?ning the new vision
and a need to embed this new vision and culture. In
addition an ongoing review to address a real need to
transform skills and the internal processes to
provide the best ideas and the best delivery in the
most ef?cient ways possible
? The Future: Transforming skills and introducing
new processes and getting ¡®the right people on the
bus...and pointing the bus in the right direction¡¯ is
never a quick process. L&D can provide an
important and speedy opportunity to engage people
and to equip individuals with many of the skills
identi?ed by dept heads and the leadership team
