About the Course

Most companies in Mauritius pay the training levy every month — but few turn it into real capability. Training is booked ad hoc, attendance is treated as the outcome, and nobody measures whether anything changed back at work. Meanwhile the HRDC refund that could fund a proper training plan goes unclaimed.

This learning and development course turns training into a managed, measurable investment. You will learn to diagnose real needs through training needs analysis, design programmes around adult learning principles, deliver and facilitate with confidence, evaluate impact — and navigate the HRDC levy-grant system so your training plan funds itself as far as possible. The course pairs naturally with our Performance Management Course, builds towards the Diploma in HR Management and Advanced Diploma in HR Management, and can be delivered in-house through our corporate training solutions.

What You Will Learn

  • The Role of Learning & Development in Organisational Success
  • Training Needs Analysis (TNA): Organisational, Job & Individual Levels
  • Adult Learning Principles & How People Actually Learn
  • Writing Clear Learning Objectives & Designing Course Content
  • Delivery Methods: Classroom, On-the-Job, E-Learning & Blended
  • Facilitation & Presentation Skills for Trainers
  • Designing Induction & Onboarding Programmes

What Our Participants Say

HR teams, training officers and business owners across Mauritius have professionalised their training function with DNB Business Institute.

"Training used to mean booking whatever course someone requested. After the TNA module, I surveyed our departments properly and built our first real annual training plan. Management approved the budget because, for once, every course was linked to a business need."

KL
Karen L.
HR Officer, Financial Services

"I'm a technician who was asked to train new recruits — I knew the subject but not how to teach it. The facilitation practice sessions changed everything. My sessions are now interactive, structured and people actually remember what I teach."

VG
Vikram G.
Technical Supervisor, Manufacturing Sector

"We had been paying the training levy for years without claiming a single rupee back. The HRDC module walked us through the training plan, G1 and G3 process step by step. Our last three courses were 60% refunded — including this one."

Learn L&D From an Institution That Lives It.

This learning and development training is delivered by DNB Business Institute — an MQA-registered institution and an approved City & Guilds and ILM centre that designs and delivers corporate training programmes across Mauritius every week. Eligible employed participants can claim an HRDC levy refund of up to 60% through the Human Resource Development Council — and we handle the G1 and G3 paperwork for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Both. HR professionals learn to manage the L&D function — needs analysis, training plans, budgets and evaluation — while trainers and subject-matter experts develop design and facilitation skills. The two perspectives strengthen each other, and many companies send both together.

Yes. Training needs analysis is a core module — you will practise identifying needs at organisational, job and individual levels, using surveys, interviews, performance data and competency frameworks, and translating findings into a prioritised training plan.

Yes. DNB Business Institute is an HRDC-approved training provider, and eligible employed participants can claim a levy refund of up to 60% of the course fee through their employer. We assist with the G1 and G3 paperwork. Learn more about the HRDC refund process.

Yes. A dedicated module covers the HRDC levy-grant system — how the training levy works, preparing your company training plan, submitting G1 applications before training and G3 refund claims after, and the common mistakes that get claims rejected.

Yes. You will design and deliver a short training segment during the course and receive structured feedback on your facilitation and presentation skills — the fastest way to build real confidence in front of a group.

L&D pairs naturally with our Performance Management Course, since development plans flow from appraisals. For a complete qualification, progress to the Diploma in HR Management and then the Advanced Diploma in HR Management, where learning and development strategy is covered at management level.

Build people. Build the business.
