Abstract
The role of learning and development specialists has changed radically in the past twenty years. Previously viewed as a necessary cost in good economic times, L&D professionals have gradually developed an increasingly wide range of specialisms and become key organisational figures as companies increasingly value knowledge generation and innovation as key competitive advantages. This recent study has gathered data from highlevel specialists and a broad national member base to build a profile of the current body of L&D professionals.
