When a key employee leaves, it causes significant disruptions in business operations.
And if there is no one available to step in and take over, this disruption can lead to a loss of revenue, decreased employee morale, and damaged customer relationships.
But an effective succession plan mitigates these costly outcomes.
That’s why successful organizations have it.
These organizations know that employees come and go. So, for continued success, they develop and maintain a succession plan to ensure that their organization continues effectively when people who occupy key roles leave.
With this, they prevent disruptions caused by employee exits, and keep their organization on the path of steady growth and continuous incursion into the market.
Little wonder, research has shown that organizations with effective succession plans are more likely to outperform their competitors.
According to a study by Deloitte, organizations with strong succession planning are 2.2 times more likely to outperform their peers in terms of revenue growth and 1.5 times more likely to outperform their peers in terms of profitability.
Creating succession plans may be demanding, but the benefits are well worth the effort.
This course is designed to equip participants with the skills required to create and maintain an effective succession plan for their organization.

The LearnSmart Advantage
Flexible, Participant-Paced Learning
All LearnSmart courses are delivered online through our interactive learning platform, allowing participants to learn wherever and whenever it is convenient.
Using the unique login details we provide, participants simply access the course through their web browser on a computer, smartphone, or tablet – no special software installation required.
Because every participant learns differently, each person controls their own pace. They can pause, reflect, revisit previous lessons, and continue exactly where they stopped. Progress is automatically saved, making learning convenient even for busy professionals.
Most participants complete their training within one week, although they have 30 days of access (extendable where necessary).
Designed for Better Learning
LearnSmart courses are carefully designed to maximize understanding, participation, and long-term retention – not simply content consumption.
Throughout each course, participants actively engage with practical questions, exercises, knowledge checks, and interactive learning activities that reinforce understanding as they progress.
Unlike traditional classroom sessions where learning must keep pace with the facilitator, LearnSmart allows every participant to spend more time on concepts they find challenging while moving quickly through familiar areas. This flexibility leads to deeper understanding, stronger retention, and greater confidence in applying new knowledge on the job.
For the best learning experience, we recommend completing the course in shorter learning sessions spread over several days rather than trying to finish everything in one sitting.
Learning Management & Participant Support
Learning does not end after enrollment.
Our team stays in touch with participants throughout their learning journey, providing reminders, encouragement, and support until they complete their course. This proactive approach contributes to our consistently high course completion rates.
Organizational Progress Reports
For organizations enrolling employees, we provide periodic training reports until all participants complete their courses.
Each report includes:
This enables managers and HR teams to monitor participation and completion without additional administrative effort.
Knowledge Application Aid (KAA)
Training creates value only when learning is applied.
To help organizations achieve this, LearnSmart provides exclusive access to its proprietary Knowledge Application Aid (KAA) at no additional cost for organizations enrolling employees.
The Knowledge Application Aid (KAA) is LearnSmart's practical workplace reinforcement tool that helps managers encourage the application of learning on the job, sustain behaviour change, and maximize the business impact of training long after the course has been completed.
Certificate of Training
Participants who successfully complete the course receive a LearnSmart Certificate of Training.
