The Strategic Planning Certificate is designed to help you strategically align the goals of your training organization with the goals of the business. In this program, you’ll learn the basic language of strategic planning, how to conduct analyses to inform your strategic plan and how to develop, implement and maintain your strategic plan. 

Founded in Training Industry’s Training Manager Competency Model™, this certificate is completed over two half-days, eight hours, in a virtual instructor-led classroom setting. Throughout that time, you’ll work with peers to discuss your own strategic plan and identify opportunities for improvement. 

The Strategic Planning Certificate is designed for current, newly promoted or aspiring learning leaders who are seeking to understand the necessity of strategic alignment and how to create and maintain a strategic plan.

We expanded the program into a certificate to give participants more time to explore and apply the strategic planning tools in depth. The new two-session format allows for additional discussion, real-world application and feedback.

There are no prerequisites to register, making this program ideal for anyone seeking to further their learning and development career.
