More Than 30 L&D Professionals Placed for a Multinational Insurer

The challenge

A multinational insurance company relied on significant training for its field engineers, for both internal and external audiences. Its enterprise learning team was working from an extensive priority project list that was highly visible and not going away.

The work required people the current budget and headcount could not cover.

The approach

AXIOM worked with the client to define the profiles of the people best suited to the work: professionals who could handle several projects at once in a fast-paced environment.

• Used AXIOM's vetting process to find proven contractors with experience in learning design and development, multiple authoring tools, and project management.
• Placed contractors directly onto ongoing, high-priority projects as an extension of the client's learning team.
• The client's internal learning professionals managed the projects, workload, and quality of AXIOM's contractors day to day.

The results

• More than 30 learning professionals placed, including instructional designers, eLearning developers, LMS administrators, and L&D project managers
• An AXIOM manager placed to oversee contract staff, including non-AXIOM resources
• Staffing with AXIOM became the client's way to meet changing project demand without adding headcount
• The client consults AXIOM for guidance as it plans new initiatives

Why it worked

Fast turnaround with qualified people who fit the client's culture and understand the demands of the work, built on trust over a long partnership.
