Cirencester, UKLearning NewsFosway

Fosway Group, Europe’s #1 HR and learning analyst, today announces a new strategic research partnership with Europe’s leading workplace learning event - Learning Technologies - and its supporting community - The Learning and Skills Group. The partnership will provide the definitive research on the learning technology market in Europe.

With initial research starting ahead of Learning Technologies 2016, the research programme will be an ongoing initiative with updates shared at regular intervals via live events and webinars. The partnership will gather data from Europe’s largest cross section of learning technology customers and suppliers to create a much needed independent barometer of the learning technologies market in Europe.

The unique goals of the research include providing a comprehensive assessment of how successfully vendors and suppliers are currently serving users of learning technology. Customer satisfaction data will be gathered at both segment and supplier level, and valuable market sizing information collated for the first time.

David Wilson, CEO of Fosway Group explains, ‘Fosway’s research covers both the customer and vendor sides of the learning technology market, which means our analysts often uncover the hidden realities of supplier relationships and the success of their solutions. This is valuable information and by working with Learning Technologies, Fosway can extend the scope of our research and the reach of our insights and share them with Europe’s largest community of L&D professionals.’

Learning Technologies Event Director, Mark Penton, comments, ‘We have been working within the learning technology market for over 15 years now, and are excited to deliver such important insights to our ever growing audience of L&D professionals. Fosway Group is the leading independent analyst in the European market, and partnering with them enables us to create a robust research process that is truly independent and comprehensive. And with initial results to be shared at Learning Technologies 2016, the Learning Technologies visitors and Learning and Skills Group community will benefit from the research findings very quickly and be able to build on these throughout the year.’

To take part in the first stage of the research, complete the initial short survey. Findings will be shared directly with all respondents, once they are unveiled at the Learning Technologies conference and exhibition in London on 3 and 4 February 2016, with subsequent updates shared throughout the year.
