How you will learn
This course is delivered as a Virtual Learning Sprint over three weeks. The Action Learning Sprint combines self-paced digital learning with virtual workshops, knowledge-to-action tasks, and social learning to develop ideas, skills, and practical solutions for various business problems.
Throughout the three-week learning sprint, you will participate in four live sessions facilitated by an industry expert. In these sessions, you’ll have the opportunity to work in groups and explore problems relevant to your context. Self-paced interactive materials complement these sessions to prepare you for robust discussion, plus questions to prompt reflection on what matters most to you. Throughout the course, you’ll work on an action learning project based on a problem from your work to immediately test out ideas on issues relevant to your role, team or organisation.
You can include a coach or mentor from your network to help you through this journey. Once you add your coach to the platform, they’ll get a coaching guide and insights into your progress to help you move through the course and contextualise materials to your own situation.
