CERTIFIED LEARNING STRATEGIST PROGRAM – Phase 1, Part 1 (Professional Competencies)

Every learning strategist needs to develop a comprehensive set of competencies that builds broad capabilities to develop and execute strategic plans and solutions that impact business outcomes. Developing these competencies enables a strategist to play a meaningful role in supporting their employees and better serve their customers, communities, stakeholders and society.
The learning competencies leverage Brandon Hall Group’s more than 30 years of expertise in the industry as the preeminent research and analyst firm in the human capital management space. The competencies have been vetted through a rigorous and continuous quantitative and qualitative research effort into all areas of human capital management.

There are two competency groups. One group focuses on individual professional competencies of the learning strategist and the other group focuses on the competencies the strategist will need to support organization objectives. Each group has defined skills that serve as the building blocks to mastering the group. In Phase 1, Part 1, we will focus on 12 Professional Competencies as follows:
Strategic Skills consisting of Design Thinking; Ideation; and Strategic Planning and Execution
Leadership Skills consisting of Consulting; Business Acumen; and Leadership / Change Advocacy
Interpersonal Skills consisting of Coaching and Mentoring; Inclusiveness; and Collaboration
Technical Skills consisting of Data Science; Digital Dexterity; and Learning Agility
