Learning Re-Framed Public Programme Overview

A five-day modular programme for re-thinking learning design, impact, and how learning connects to day-to-day work.

A programme not a scheduled course

For a long time, public learning programmes in L&D have followed a familiar pattern. Individual courses. Repeated dates. Flexible attendance. If you miss one, you can catch the next.

Learning Re-Framed is deliberately different. It runs twice a year only, as a cohort-based programme designed to create space for proper thinking — not just attendance. You don’t “fit it in”. You decide it’s worth making time for.

A short introduction to Learning Re-Framed

A brief overview of why the programme exists, what it explores, and how it connects learning to day-to-day work.

Why this programme

As and L&D professional, you are doing your best work within real constraints, yet you still find yourself dealing with familiar tensions:

learning that looks strong, but struggles to translate into day-to-day work.
pressure to “demonstrate impact” in ways that don’t quite reflect reality.
defaulting to training when something else may be needed.
a sense that something isn’t quite lining up — without a clear way to articulate why.

Learning Re-Framed exists to address that tension. Not by adding more models or focusing trends; but by re-examining how learning is designed, supported, and evaluated in the first place.

Question Mark

What makes Learning Re-Framed Different?

It’s about shifting emphasis in ways that make learning more useful in practice. Across the programme, the focus is on:

designing with application in mind from the outset
recognising when training helps — and when other forms of support matter more
structuring meaningful practice, not just content exposure
making sense of impact without turning evaluation into a burden, and
connecting learning decisions more clearly to real work.

It’s a subtle shift — but for many people, it changes how everything fits together.

Standing Out

A programme with space to think, reflect and apply

Learning Re-Framed is structured as a five-day programme, delivered over five consecutive Thursdays.

This spacing is intentional. It gives you time between sessions to reflect, notice, and connect ideas back to your own context. You can:

attend the full programme as a coherent whole, or
join for selected days that are most relevant.

Most people attend more than one day. Some attend all five. The modularity is deliberate - but the programme itself remains a connected whole.

Who this programme is for

Learning Re-Framed is designed for:

L&D leaders and managers.
instructional designers.
facilitators and trainers.
consultants and independent practitioners.

It’s particularly valuable if you:

sense the limits of “course-first” thinking
want a clearer framework for your decisions
feel pressure to demonstrate value without oversimplifying learning, or
want ideas you can apply — not just agree with.

Day 3: Boredom-Busting E-Learning That Works

Day 4: In-Person and Virtual Classroom Design

Virtual and face-to-face learning don’t require fundamentally different designs — what matters is how practice is structured.

Day 5: Supporting Workflow Application

Some of the most important learning happens during work — when people are supported in the moment they need it.
