Back in Episode 244, Ross G, Owen, Carrie and Gent discussed the value of benchmarking, as we prepared to launch the Learning Performance Benchmark. A few months on, we thought it would be worth hearing what benchmarking looks like in practice.

In this week's episode of The Mind Tools L&D Podcast, Ross D and Gent are joined by James Hampton from Seasalt Cornwall to discuss:

  • the insights Seasalt Cornwall have unlocked through the benchmarking process
  • the action they have taken in response to those insights
  • the value of the Learning Performance Benchmark as a recurring, long-term process
  • advice for learning professionals who are considering benchmarking for the first time
