LPI Unveils Updated and Redesigned Capability Map
Improving how L&D leaders can align their team's capabilities with the evolving demands of their organisations.
The Learning and Performance Institute (LPI) is thrilled to announce the release of the latest version of the LPI Capability Map, a transformative tool designed to empower learning and development (L&D) professionals by providing unparalleled insight into current and future skill requirements.
The LPI Capability Map has long been a cornerstone for organisations seeking to benchmark their L&D functions. With the rapid evolution of the workplace, driven by new technologies such as AI, changing work practices, and evolving employee expectations, it was imperative to refine and expand the Map’s scope to address these challenges.
This latest iteration of the Map promises to set a new benchmark in professional development by providing teams and professionals with an enhanced tool to assess, develop, and optimise the skills and capabilities needed for success in the modern workplace.
To improve the user experience of the Map, the LPI partnered with technology providers, Rise Up and Kepler + Co, to leverage their expertise, innovation, and shared commitment to empowering L&D professionals with cutting-edge tools and insights.
Key Features of the Updated LPI Capability Map:
- Comprehensive Skill Coverage: The updated Capability Map now includes an expanded set of skills and competencies that reflect the current and future needs of the L&D industry, covering areas such as artificial intelligence, marketing, data analytics, and organisational change management.
- Advanced Assessment Tools: With improved analytics and reporting capabilities, the new Map enables organisations to gain deeper insights into their L&D teams’ strengths and areas for development. This allows for more targeted and effective interventions to close skill gaps.
- User-Friendly Interface: Developed with input from Kepler + Co, the updated Map features a more intuitive interface, making it easier for users to navigate and utilise the tool to its fullest potential.
- Tailored Development Plans: Leveraging the expertise of Kepler + Co and Rise Up, the Capability Map now offers personalised development plans and a private resource library, guiding professionals and organisations in building the skills necessary for sustained success.
“The LPI Capability Map is not just an assessment tool - it’s a strategic resource for L&D teams and professionals to align their capabilities with business goals,” said Ed Monk, CEO of the LPI. “This redesign represents the perfect fusion of the LPI's industry knowledge with innovative technology powered by Kepler + Co and Rise Up, providing a platform that is not just reactive to change but anticipates the needs of a future-ready workforce.”
Kelsey Gauld, Head of Partnerships at Kepler + Co, added: “Kepler has partnered with LPI to deliver some serious value to the L&D community. By integrating Kepler's advanced capabilities into the LPI Capability Map, we are redefining the standard for assessing and developing critical skills in the workplace. The foundation of this partnership is shared value, optimism and a long-term play to bring immense value and quality to the learning world."
Arnaud Blachon, CEO of Rise Up, commented: "At Rise Up, our mission is to make learning personal and impactful. Partnering with the LPI to deliver tailored courses through our all-in-one learning platform marks an exciting step in empowering L&D professionals. It’s all about giving people the right tools and knowledge, exactly when they need them, to make a real difference. We’re thrilled to support our community of L&D professionals with the LPI on their journey to grow and develop through personalised, adaptive learning experiences."
