LearnOps Maturity Assessment

Identify gaps in your L&D team with Cognota’s LearnOps Maturity Assessment.

Maturity

The Benefits of LearnOps

L&D professionals understand the significant business benefits of a well-managed L&D function, but this value has not always been recognized by business executives. This perspective is changing as learning leaders use meaningful metrics to demonstrate L&D’s true business value. With increased understanding comes greater scrutiny on L&D efficiency. Many L&D groups have not undergone the same level of operational transformation as other business units and are not operating at full potential.

Cognota’s LearnOps Framework and Maturity Assessment help evaluate all elements of your L&D organization, identifying gaps between the current and desired future states.
