With the vision of "Creating a unified Engineering Leadership Program that efficiently and effectively identifies candidates employed at an entry level position and who successfully continue to develop and support the growth and evolution of the company" the ELP Next Gen project team developed a proposal and presented this to our EMEIA leadership. Now the implementation has been kicked off.

As one part of the ELP Next Gen project the Learning and Development (L&D) sub-team would like to gather information from AE and Inside Sales TLs/Mgrs about the learning and development you currently have in place to reach your business goals (incl. revenue, retention, talent pipeline, etc).

The project group has gathered some information on this topic last year which was valuable for our discussions in order to build the ELP L&D framework. The purpose of this short survey is to focus on specific parts of ELP L&D so that we can take appropriate actions. The collected data will be reviewed by the ELP L&D sub-team and used for creating an aligned ELP curriculum. The information we ask from you in this survey are critical to make sure that we can develop a program that really addresses your needs and give you a well-designed solution in return to make your life easier by reducing the time and efforts to build your own ones.
You, as TLs/Mgrs can expect a summary from the ELP L&D sub-team on the progress made.

Please complete the following survey which should only take 10-15 mins of your time by May 4th the latest!

Thank you for your time and for providing information! If you have any questions or comments, please let us know.

Best Wishes,
Marc Winter on behalf of the ELP L&D sub-team

 
 
 
* Industry leading graduate development programs around world use a rotational model that allows their graduates to gain the experience in multiple departments as part of their learning and development. The proposal for the Next Gen ELP group is for all ELP engineers to gain experience in at least the AE and Inside Sales department.

Do all of your ELP currently do a rotation into Inside Sales?
 
Yes
 
No

* One of the main goals for this project is to create an aligned L&D ELP curriculum for the entire duration of the program.

Do you currently have a clear and predefined Learning & Development (L&D) plan for all ELP engineers in your group (AE or Inside Sales)?
 
Yes, I have a clear L&D plan for the duration of ELP.
 
Somewhat, I have a clear idea of L&D onboarding and adjust the plan according to needs.
 
Somewhat, I have a clear L&D plan for some parts of onboarding or duration of ELP.
 
No, I onboard ELP engineers and consider training where time allows.

* Can you describe what you expect an ELP engineer is able to do/demonstrate at the end of ELP or their time in AE or Inside Sales?
 
I have this documented (please send it to Marc Winter - [email protected]).
 
Yes, I can desribe:

 
 
 
* Industry leading graduate development programs have curriculums that develop graduates in areas such as business acumen, soft skills and basic leadership skills as well as technical knowledge and skills.

Outside of core technical, product knowledge and sales skills what other skills do you develop in your ELP engineers?
How do you do this?
 
No other skills.
 
I develop:
 
 
 
* Do you currently use any external companies to provide any part of the learning and development of ELP?
 
No, I do not use anything external to NI.
 
Yes, I purchase external content
 
Yes, I use external facilitators
 
If yes, please comment on what it is

 
 
 
* A L&D best practice is to use the 70-20-10 adult learning model to engage learners and embed learning content. In this model the development will be about 70% from on-the-job experiences - working on tasks and problems; about 20% from feedback - coaching and learning from peers; and 10% from formal learning - like courses/training classes and reading.

Would you be able to give any examples of whether you use the 70-20-10 model currently or if you use anything similar to this?
 
No, I only use formal training (10%) currently.
 
Yes, I use:
 
 
 
* Developments in technology have paved the way for the flip learning (or flipped classroom) model which allows more effective use of the classroom time together as well as giving more flexibility for the learners. Flip learning focuses on the learning starting before the classroom (pre-work), the classroom time is mainly used for practicing the skills and getting feedback with follow up actions defined as post work.

Would you be able to give any examples of whether you use the flip learning model currently or if you use anything similar to this?
 
No, I use the classroom time mainly for content delivery.
 
Yes, I use:
 
 
 
* What activities do you currently do to enable ELP engineers to learn more about career paths at NI outside of AE and Inside Sales?
 
We don't have any specific activities in place.
 
We have activities such as:
 
 
 
* How do you currently measure the effectiveness of learning and development activities against the goals of that activity?
