Before you invest in a training programme and start working with Wahoo Learning, there are some important elements to have in place first.
Even though we take care of the training programme delivery and project management, there is some preliminary work you can do to help us hit the ground running and get to the deployment stage as smoothly and quickly as possible. Of course, this is also dependent on the individual requirements of your programme.
Here is a detailed overview of what you need in place before we start work together.
When we enter a new partnership and start working with a new customer, we think it’s important to be as transparent as possible. We want to work closely with you and get under the skin of your organisation from the offset.
From your point of view, this process is designed to set your expectations and ensure you get the most from our partnership. It’s a chance for you to get to know Wahoo Learning and understand the processes we put in place to make a success of your training programme.

The 70/20/10 learning and development model, developed in the early 90’s by Robert Eichinger, Michael Lombardo and Morgan McCall, asserts that 70 percent of learning and development takes place from real-life and on-the-job experiences, tasks, and problem solving. 20 percent of the time, development comes from other people through informal or formal feedback, mentoring, or coaching. 10 percent of learning and development comes from formal training.
The concern with this model is that formal learning initiatives are devalued and that if 90 percent of learning is informal, it therefore requires no attention. However, the 70/20/10 idea resulted from an effort to raise the awareness about informal and experiential learning. This occurs usually without a mental acknowledgement or even planning by the learner, unlike when engaging in formalised learning which is more of a conscious decision.
An influence on strategy
The 70/20/10 learning and development model should be an influence on training strategy rather than a strategy in itself. The most useful application of this powerful model for understanding learners and their learning world should be to:
Strongly support the 70% learning
Develop and exploit the power of the 20%
Design the 10% within the clear context of the other 90%
Our view on this model?
Professionals and leadership can get hung up on the numbers or the right combination. But what 70/20/10 is all about is recognising that a lot of learning happens informally on the job and therefore is a culture change tool to support a model which strikes the right balance for the organisation.
The 70/20/10 learning and development model is about creating a culture of recognising informal learning as well as promoting opportunities to learn informally. Issues around people not realising they are learning as they are doing, but rather they need to attend a training session in a classroom is a significant challenge. Leaders, managers and staff need to shift their thinking about what, where, and how learning takes place. Not only does culture and mindset need to change, systems, policies and procedures are affected.
Some people may doubt this approach or whether it even works. However, we believe it is a philosophy not a formula.
Some feel releasing control from formalized learning to informal may produce issues for the business
Quality can’t be assured or controlled
The knowledge and skill transfer may be incorrect
The trainer/coach/mentor may not have the right skill
In reality it is not too different to apprentice type schemes proven in industry, and with the right support from students’ managers and supervisors is a powerful way to engage and encourage employees.
Wahoo Learning helps facilitate this philosophy by moving formal training material to an online delivery. It enables the ‘10%’ of formal training to be consistently delivered, when, where and at the pace of the student, and it remains available for further review as they learn on the job and with the support of experienced coaches or mentors.

In the early stages of training programme development, planning how you intend to support, maintain and manage it is the key to its success.
For this, there are generally two options: outsourcing to a specialist or keeping it under one roof in-house.
However, deciding how to move forward isn’t clear cut. Many factors can impact the decision.
We are not about to tell you to outsource to us. It’s about us helping you explore your options and make the right choice for your requirements.
Do you think you might be ready to work with Wahoo Learning? Perhaps you’ve identified your challenges and how training solves them. Maybe an online training programme is what you have needed for a while now, but you don’t have the budget or resources available to make it a success.
As a business, we work with you to gain a full understanding of your business and situation to ensure that both parties are ready to sign on the dotted line. There’s nothing worse than wasted time on both parts.

Whenever we make a decision to purchase a new product or service, we all have questions. Choosing the right LMS for your organisation can be a difficult decision, especially as there are so many options on the market.
We’ve written this blog to save some of the guesswork and answer any questions you may have ahead of your decision.
The WahooLMS has been specifically created for training external audiences so it’s important to us to explain the how, why and what.
