<p>Training, learning, development call it what you will is essential for businesses to grow. So why wouldn’t the learning professional want to ask the right questions to make sure solutions hit the mark?</p>
<p>Whether that solution ends up as being a course, a programme, a resource, a piece of online learning, offline learning, coaching, mentoring or something entirely different matters not.
