Participant Testimonials

“I’m really looking forward to trying this on real projects. It will be a game changer for us.” – Amy Graft, Lead, Global Learning North America (Siemens)

“Demonstrating impact is something that learning has been attempting to demystify for years and it is refreshing that there is a solution that is easily explainable, and with practice can get less challenging to implement. I’m looking forward to applying measurement maps to justify learning and business initiatives going forward.” – Academy participant

“I enjoyed the learning journey. The way we progressed through the learn, practice, and analyze phases was amazing.” – Academy participant

“The Business Case Study was a great way to experience and practice how to develop a measurement map. Working with a team mate was also very beneficial as it generated great discussions and prompted lots of questions.” – Academy participant

“The application and practice portions of this training were invaluable! It’s one thing to understand a concept, but quite another to create and then ultimately read the logic of the measurement map.” – Academy participant

“Wonderful training and very engaging. Working with my team member made it even more enjoyable. We practiced, and we argued and in the process, we learned that measurement mapping is the best way to tell a story the right way.” – Academy participant
