Respond quickly when you need to with off-the-shelf learning.
The pressure to deliver training rarely waits and sometimes you don’t have the luxury of being able to develop your own material in the time. Off-the-shelf learning offers a practical way to respond quickly, giving organisations access to ready to use courses that can be deployed when they’re needed most.
Buying ready-made courses is a reliable option for meeting immediate requirements, while still leaving space to step back and develop more tailored, bespoke learning solutions over time.
Off-the-shelf solutions might be right for your organisation if this sounds like you:
Like-Minded work with a number of course providers who have a catalogue of ready-made courses for you to select from. We can work in with your current learning deployment or we can help you build for new and different systems to make the experience seamless and easy for learners to engage with the content.
The courses we offer come in different styles to suit the range of learning preferences, so you can select one that works for your staff. We have chosen providers whose courses are built around real workplace scenarios and practical application, so skills transfer quickly into day-to-day performance.
You may need to support regulatory requirements with structured learning designed for audit confidence and risk reduction.

Most of the providers will simply work in with your existing learning management system (LMS) or we can help you set up a new LMS if needed. Many of the providers also have their own way of deploying content and we will explore with you the most efficient and cost-efficient solution is for your organisation.
We start with a conversation to understand what you need and identify the right off the shelf courses.
You can deploy them through your existing LMS, or we can help you set one up if needed. From there, you have clear reporting on completions and engagement, all within a seamless experience for your team.
Off-the-shelf learning can be a great starting point, but it doesn’t always reflect your organisation’s specific needs, systems, or ways of working.
As your capability grows, you may want more control over the content your learners see and how that learning experience is delivered.
Creating bespoke content allows learning to align more closely with your people, processes, and goals. If you’re ready to explore what’s possible, get in touch. We’d be happy to help you take the next step.
We have partnerships with several organisations that develop learning programmes designed to address common workplace skills and compliance needs. These generic modules are prepared and validated by experts in their field. The courses available immediately to be deployed on your LMS.
Some example topics are given above but there are literally hundreds of courses that you could access. The courses that cover compliance, leadership, communication, customer service, productivity, wellbeing, diversity and inclusion, and more. Ask us to take you through the options to see if it matches with what you need.
Most courses come ‘as-is’ and they’re visually generic enough to blend with your own brand. A few off-the-shelf courses can be customised to some extent but this is usually limited to visual design and not content. If you wanted any detailed changes to made, this would come with a cost and it can become quite a balance for modifying ready-made content with the cost of building your own course. The off-the-shelf courses are designed for immediate rollout, without needing customisation.
The same as for any of most LMS courses, our providers give you access to reports showing you completion data, learner engagement metrics, knowledge checks, and observable performance improvements.
Off-the-shelf courses provide immediate access to structured, practical learning that makes a measurable difference when you don’t have the resources or the immediate capacity to build your own.
