Learning Outcomes Plans
Training Needs Analysis
As part of our programmes, we provide a complimentary Training Needs Analysis (TNA) for your staff to ensure training is aligned with corporate strategy and the training goals and objectives of the corporation and the individual trainee.
Balanced Scorecard Approach
Our approach to training and development is entrenched in the Balanced Scorecard approach to business and management. We purposely map our training to your balanced scorecard to achieve the learning outcomes that enhance your bottom line.
Instructional Design
We design our learning and assessment materials around specific developmental outcomes and are able to use standardised, configured and customised materials in delivering our training. We also custom design user manuals, induction programmes and product-specific training.
Case Studies
Every one of our programmes comes with a raft of Applied Case Studies that are taken from your industry and are timely, up-to-date, relevant and experiential. We are able, at no extra cost, to add further case studies pertinent to your organisation in our training programme.
Instructional Style
Our instructional style is experiential, hands-on and fun; geared to results for the employee and the employer. We cater for diverse audiences with different learning styles, learning drivers and personality profiles.
Delivery Style
The delivery style we adopt is in-class in a workshop setting that allows trainees to interact, apply the case studies and develop their skills in the subject matter.
We also deliver online via our Learning Management System (LMS) and via distance learning.
Audience Considerations
All our programmes take into account the learning audience, their skills and approach to learning. We cater for learners at entry level to senior executive management levels and Boards of Directors. Our training applies to private corporations, local, state and federal government as well as not for profits and Small and Medium Enterprise (SME), institutions and international firms. We deliver training for blue collar and white collar professionals.
Content Structure
Courses are structured around the key subject matter areas that ensure learning can be applied in the workplace.
Capability and Leadership Framework (CALF)
We apply a custom-designed Capability and Leadership Framework (CALF) to our professional training programmes. This framework is designed to align learning to career goals, business goals, talent considerations and the Balanced Scorecard. This framework is applied at the customer’s discretion and can be used by human resource professionals in the application of professional development programmes.
Performance Frameworks
We apply a LearnCorp Leadership Performance Framework (LLPF) to our development programmes in coordination with Learning and Development Managers and Human Resource Managers to better match learning, its outcomes and the training content to the performance framework used in your organisation.
Professional Development
There are a range of Professional Development (PD) programmes on offer at LearnCorp under the Professional Development Courses (PDC) section of this booklet. These programmes can assist professionals to apply PD hours to their development plan for the year.
The 70:20:10 Framework
At LearnCorp we apply the 70:20:10 model in learning and development. The model was developed by Morgan McCall and his colleagues Robert W. Eichinger and Michael M. Lombardo at the Centre for Creative Leadership in 1996. This was based on the results of their survey with successful and effective managers which revealed that learning is:
70% from the job the employee undertakes
20% from people
10% from courses and reading
The model stresses the need to extend learning beyond the classroom and the course paradigm. It also provides a framework for improving and extending traditional training and learning into the workplace where:
70 refers to workplace learning and performance support
20 refers to social learning including informal coaching and mentoring
10 refers to structured learning
Learning Management System (LMS) and Online Learning
In addition to our in-class delivery, we have a cutting edge Learning Management System (LMS) built on a Moodle platform with SCORM-compliant courses and assessments that can be accessed globally via an array of online devices.
Distance Learning (DE)
For learners with the need to obtain physical materials and phone support due to distance, timing or location considerations, LearnCorp provides a distance learning option whereby we provide printed materials sent by post to the learner along with phone and email support to complete the course.
Blended Learning
We are also able to apply a mix of all the learning modes to suit your requirements. Mixtures of face to face, online and distance are all possible in a variety of formats and percentages.

LearnCorp Training and National Qualifications
We are a corporate training company and consequently our courses do not lead to qualifications. We are not a Registered Training Organisation (RTO), however, we do work with a wide array of RTO’s who do offer qualifications in a range of subject matter areas. We have listed these in this catalogue and will be glad to provide you with relevant details if you are interested in a particular course. There are various terms and conditions that apply to qualification courses, so we recommend you contact us for a discussion to assist you in ascertaining the course relevance to your needs, prior to enrolling.
Our Certificates of Attendance
We are a pure training and development company focussed on productivity and business issues resolution through training which means issuing qualifications is not our primary target. We do issue a wall-mountable high quality certificate for every attendee in all of our programmes along with a LearnCorp Skills Matrix that shows the list of newly acquired or enhanced skills for the learner.
Costs and Class Sizes
Our fees are all-inclusive. There are no hidden fees and no extra conditions, but we run our training based on minimum class numbers, so if we do not reach that lower limit of participants, we may have to postpone the class. We only charge you once the course is confirmed as running. Our online courses can run with any number of enrolees.
Short Courses
These are usually one-day workshops that are specific and focussed. Each of these covers a particular business, commercial or managerial topic and covers the main themes and practical areas in that topic. Every workshop leads to a Certificate of Attendance.
Two Day Specialist Workshops
The two day workshops cover an in-depth topic with a range of theoretical and practical applications. The topics in these sessions tend to be specialised or niche and attract a specific trainee wanting to delve into the depth and breadth of a particular topic.
Online Learning
Most of our short courses are offered online, thus providing a degree of flexibility and time management manoeuvring room for the trainee. These courses are replicas of the face to face Short Courses and the face to face Two Day Specialist Workshops.
