This session focuses on how a scalable impact-measurement approach was used to drive continuous improvement processes, increasing learning by 68 percent. Vestas developed and conducted a learning program in 2008 to provide employees with the most basic skills in all areas administered in SAP, from finance to sales. The chief learning officer (CLO) was asked to document the quality of the training. The CLO worked with Peopleway to build extended measurement into all phases of the program. Results, approach, evaluation strategy, and case examples on how Vestas built Level 1 to Level 3 impact measurement into the global SAP training program is introduced at the conference.

Earlier this year, Vestas won The Oscars of HR – Bersin’s Learning Leaders Awards – for the company’s introductory program, developed in close collaboration with Peopleway. Now more recognition is on its way: The learning universe “Vestas World” has just won the Brandon Hall Award in the category “Best use of Virtual Worlds for Learning”. Peopleway has contributed to “Vestas World” with an Impact Measurement setup.

20-30 percent higher return in performance measurement is the result of Peopleway’s learning solution for Vestas Wind Systems. This story and the story of why measuring satisfaction alone will not do the job: It’s Peopleway featured twice in Ingeniøren (The Engineer).
