Lifelong Learning is the new mantra. It is has become the primary purpose of educators, employers and governments around the world as they work to address the challenges of life in a rapidly changing global environment.
None of us can avoid the impact of climate change, of the march of technology, of an ageing population, of political upheaval, of mass economic and ethnic migrations, of natural environmental and humanitarian disasters and of the powerful voice of an educated youth.
It is our personal Learning Power that enables us to manage the consequences of change. We have little alternative but to become adept at handling our changing role in family and in society as we grow older and our role is made all the more challenging as we are called upon to make the decisions, as responsible citizens, that will govern the future state of planet earth for generations to come.
Learning Power’s inevitably face us as we go through life? assessment, development pathways and quality standards are as simple to understand and adopt as 1,2,3 …
Profiling the Learner with ELLI
(the Effective Lifelong Inventory)
7 measurable dimensions research-validated by
and tested among more than 100,000 people globally drawn from all walks of life
Cultivating Learning Power
(a suite of change management programmes and interventions)
The work of teachers, business leaders and civil servants over 30 years of ‘front-line’ practice. Continually honed to keep pace with the demands of a rapidly changing world
The Learning ‘Road Map’
(a recognised Standard, change management framework and organisational model)
Captures the social and economic imperatives of confident, caring and competent 21st Century living to provide a context for the development of Learning Power
ELLI distills Learning Power into 7 easily understood dimensions. The answers to an on-line questionnaire are calculated to produce a percentage in each case which is then expressed as a simple ‘spidergraphic’.
Learning Power is dynamic. It doesn’t pigeon-hole us as the
majority of psychometric tests do. It reveals our strengths and weaknesses,
prescribes the necessary interventions and then monitors our learning journey.
Learning is a journey for life, beginning at birth and with us to the grave. However, our quality of life is governed in large measure by the learning environments and cultures that educators, employers and governments create.
Change Is something we have to live with and learn to cope with. Some of us resist it, others embrace it! Change touches every corner of our lives and the quality of life that we are able to enjoy depends on our Learning Power. It lies at the very heart of happiness.
Learning is learnable!
We have proved beyond doubt that with ELLI’s learning profile as the starting point to direct training interventions, learning strengths can be used to strengthen learning weaknesses. Change is measured by further profiling
WHY IS LEARNING POWER UNIQUE?
Learning Power was born in schools before
meeting the demands of a wider public. School
intervention programs and pathways have been
developed by teachers for teachers and
promote creativity and resilience to transform
the traditional ‘chalk and talk’ classroom culture
Learning-powered organisations are leaders in their fields. They regard ‘learning’ as a critical success factor and strategic imperative. They give equal priority to CPD and enhancing employee lifetime value as they do to the optimising of customer lifetime value.
Research has told us that almost every learner that has engaged in the ELLI profiling of Learning Power has no only become much more aware of themselves as learners but also more reflective as they have progressed through life. They are:
Learning Power has become the instrument and tool of choice in a widening variety of situations, frequently replacing the static typologies of psychometrics. It provides the platform for:
