KPMG learning services

Transformational projects

The specialist L&D expertise that we have assembled in-house is complemented by our consortium of suppliers - stocked with everything from small businesses who are experts in their field to some of the world’s most reputable business schools, academic institutions, universities and accrediting bodies. We’ve carefully selected every one of these, firm in our view that we all have to share the same values, beliefs and ways of working. Together, we have the breadth and diversity to meet all learning and evaluation needs, cost-effectively and at scale.

What this capability allows us to do is to design and deliver entire curriculums; to create learning pathways; and to make available a vast wealth of learning activities, both off the shelf and bespoke.

As well as always being on the lookout for new and innovative tools and providers, we continue to add new specialisms to the in-house team, incorporating the latest services that we offer to clients from elsewhere in KPMG. Industry skills benchmarking, data analysis and customer experience mapping are just some of the disciplines to have been added to our learning offer in recent times, helping clients make even better decisions about their curriculum and how it’s managed.

The organisational insights and L&D experience that we now bring allow us to elevate learning from something plain or generic to something that can make a genuine difference on the ground, delivering relevant content, when and where it’s most needed, and a positive learning experience.

What unites our entire faculty is our belief that learning must make a difference – and that we can make learning better.

At an individual level, workplace learning should help you be even more productive in your current job – or help you secure a better job. At an organisational level, learning needs to deliver real, tangible results; something that justifies the investment.

When designing and delivering learning, we believe that its success will often come down to whether you can make people care about it. As a learner, if you understand the impact that a piece of learning could have, the difference it could make or how it ties into a bigger organisational purpose, then you’re more likely to care about what you’re learning.

And if you care about it, then you’re going to engage with that learning activity in a very different, more invested, way than with something that feels more like an obligatory tick-box exercise.

That’s why learning needs to be meaningful and relevant; tailored to an individual’s job and to an organisation’s particular circumstances. Done correctly, the impact of what we help deliver can be seen filtering right down to an organisation’s customers or end-users.

We don’t just think we can make learning better. We know we can. By making learning relevant, engaging and linked to an overarching purpose, we’ve proved time and time again how we can help organisations to improve their performance and productivity. The best thing is, we’re still learning too, so – together – we’re only going to keep getting better at this.
