The Learning & Performance Institute (LPI), the foremost accreditation and membership body for the learning sector is delighted to announce that the Thomson Reuters Foundation, the philanthropic arm of the global news and information provider, has achieved 'Accredited Learning Provider' status.
This accreditation positions the Thomson Reuters Foundation firmly among the highest percentile of learning providers and is a further endorsement of its position on quality of service and innovation.
About the Thomson Reuters Foundation
Drawing on the expertise and global influence of Thomson Reuters, the Thomson Reuters Foundation provides innovative training solutions to global media outlets, governmental organisations and companies that promote best practice in journalism and spread excellence in the practice of legal pro bono.
"We are renowned for our outstanding training because we deliver inspirational learning that positively changes behaviours and drives improved individual and organisational performance,” said Head of Business Development, George Gault. “Our unique insight, strategic partnerships and access to a comprehensive network of subject-matter experts ensures every solution is developed with real-time, top-class content. Now, with an independent accreditation from the LPI, we can build our capability further and higher, raising our profession and our market offerings to new levels of excellence."
About the Accreditation
The LPI accreditation programme for learning providers independently evaluates and endorses a provider's ongoing commitment to outstanding customer care, integrity and operational efficiency. A recognised standard in the L&D industry today, the programme employs a highly robust framework, developed over many years by learning experts, and validated by data from thousands of organisations, to measure, benchmark and improve learning capabilities.
Commenting on the accreditation, Edmund Monk, CEO, Learning & Performance Institute, said, "Thomson Reuters is a global brand more often associated with news and information than with the provision of bespoke training - but as this accreditation proves - there is far more to this organisation than meets the eye. Not only is the Thomson Reuters Foundation providing hundreds of training programmes, covering Communications, Media & Journalism, Copywriting, Marketing and other specialties, but it is doing so at an extremely high standard, with an unwavering dedication to performance outcomes.
"The LPI accreditation is renowned for its rigorous and comprehensive assessment of an organisation's learning capability and plans for improvement; the benchmarks are uncommonly high. This accreditation now gives the Thomson Reuters Foundation an absolute guarantee of quality from an independent, established and globally-recognised professional body. As such, customers of the Thomson Reuters Foundation can be assured of a superb learning experience across the entire portfolio."
