Learning at Work Week 2026
Who We Are
A national partner focused on learning that actually works
The Agile Business Consortium is a professional body and global community dedicated to helping organisations and individuals become more adaptive, creative and resilient.
As a National Partner for Learning at Work Week 2026, we are contributing a range of resources to support this year’s theme, “Many ways to learn”. This includes a live webinar, an interactive learning event, and access to selected learning content designed to help organisations turn learning into practical capability.
Why Learning Needs to Change
Learning is everywhere.
Courses. Podcasts. Videos. Articles. Microlearning. Social learning. The challenge for organisations is no longer access to knowledge, it is turning learning into real capability.

What this means for organisations
These are not small shifts as they represent a fundamental change in how organisations need to think about learning, and at the same time, the skills that matter most are evolving.
These are not capabilities that can be built through occasional training programmes. They develop when organisations create environments where people can experiment safely, learn from experience, collaborate across teams, and adapt how they work as conditions change.
Key skills to focus on
Free webinar - Thursday 16th April - 13.00-14.00 BST

“HR and L&D leaders tell us their people are learning, but the organisation isn't changing. Closing that gap takes more than training - it takes a connected approach to capability, community, and practice. That's what we exist to do.”
Karen McAllen
CEO, Agile Business Consortium
