The Towards Maturity Benchmark survey is in full swing - we've had excellent take up from a wide range of sectors. And there is still time to get involved.

The 2008 review is aimed at those implementing learning technologies for staff in their own workplace. All those who complete this review you will receive a personalised benchmark report  that highlights your strengths and weaknesses. 

!!A HEALTH WARNING!!  -Taking part in this will help you seriously improve your organisations’s take up and impact of learning technologies. However we do recommend that you grab a coffee, shut the door and set aside 30 – 40 minutes to get the most from this review. Start the survey here

Is it worth the time? - here are just a few of the things that people are saying about the review:

"It was really useful completing the survey, it gave me time to reflect and take stock. I can see how advanced we are in Cisco" David Loewy, Field Client Manager, Cisco Systems Ltd

"I've found that participating in the research programmes from the Towards Maturity team has always provided a good opportunity to 'take stock'. Their pragmatic approach to benchmarking good practice provides a very useful source of industry information and food for thought" Mike Booth,Learning Technologies Manager, Cable&Wireless

I have just completed the Towards Maturity 2008 Benchmark review and found the process of taking part really useful.  We don’t have anything like this in the NHS at the moment and I am looking forward to seeing the results. It will be very helpful to know how our activities compare with others so that we can build on our strengths and improve our weaknesses’  Alison Wright,E-Learning Programme Manager, NHS Education South Central
 

"It takes time and experience to embed learning technologies properly and we have found that taking part in the Towards Maturity research over the past few years has been a really useful exercise to help us compare our experiences and collectively learn from others also on that journey" - Charles Jennings, Global Head of Learning, Thomson Reuters

''Once again, we are proud to support Towards Maturity’s 2008 benchmark review. This comprehensive research programme has been running for 4 years now and we’ve found that it not only is one of the most reliable indicators of the trends in e-learning adoption for the UK but it  also provides practical benchmarks for individual participants wanting to improve the impact of learning technologies in their own workplace.'' Donald H Taylor – chair of Learning Technologies and Learning and Skills group

''The eLearning Network is a keen supporter of the Towards Maturity research, which does so much to spread good practice and to highlight the issues that need addressing if e-learning is to achieve its full potential'' Clive Shepherd, Chair, eLearning Network

‘This impressive, powerful and comprehensive piece of research is exactly the right instrument to investigate and benchmark the maturity of e-learning nationally; the BILD is happy to endorse, promote and support it fully.’ Jack Wills. Chair The British Institute for Learning and Development (BILD)
