Background

The Spotlight Sector Benchmarks draw on the organisation’s nine-year track record of producing the leading European Industry Benchmark. Drawing on data from 1,800 organisations, The Towards Maturity Benchmark is considered the most comprehensive independent review of the use of learning technologies in the UK workplace. (The 2011-12 report is available for free download at: www.towardsmaturity.org/2011benchmark).

Participants in the 2011-12 benchmark also received a free personalised benchmark report on completion of the study. This personal report can be used in conjunction with the industry spotlights to directly compare your current learning technology progress with your peers. If you took part in the 2011 benchmark but did not download your personal report, please contact Charles@towardsmaturity.org to find out how you can access it.
