Retail and Consumer Goods Training, Upskilling and Reskilling
In a world where the use of AI is growing, more senior, upskilled employees can work effectively with AI specialists to help build the right applications for your business. Employees concerned about their jobs being at risk in the longer term can be reskilled into different roles and career paths to improve their futures.
Martec International’s proprietary Upskilling and Reskilling Methodology can help large and small companies alike. This short 3-minute video will give you a quick overview of what it addresses.
What makes upskilling so much more successful than training? Here’s how Martec does it.

Upskilling Process Our upskilling process focuses on providing knowledge and practicing skills. The precise mix of the activities shown above varies by learning path and the seniority of the job role. Clients can personalise our process and content to the company, as well as personalise the learning experience for specific individuals. Three 20-minute videos give a detailed explanation of the approach and the implementation kit includes templated tools to assist implementation, an upskilling planning model, a time-based return on investment model and a business case analysis and ROI class.

Learning Paths
Our e-learning classes are organised into learning paths, one for each job role, which might be upskilled. These learning paths have specific key performance indicators associated with them, which enables our methodology to produce a return on investment projection in advance, and then track that the forecasted business benefits are being achieved, or identify ways to address any shortfall.

We also provide clients with an analysis of their learner feedback. Over many thousands of learner surveys, our average grading on 4 measured questions is between 86% and 87% and our net promoter score is 55%.

News from Martec
Skills Density is Important when Downsizing
A recent article in a leading newspaper suggested that accounting firms will be one of the groups most affected by downsizing because of AI. The expectation is that AI will replace a lot of those jobs. If your business does anticipate significant layoffs, irrespective of whether caused by AI or not, having skills density metrics could be really helpful in deciding who you most need to stay. As firms and even Government departments become more...
Learn MoreFrequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between upskilling and reskilling?
Upskilling builds deeper capability in someone's current role, so they perform it to a higher standard. Reskilling prepares someone for a different role, often because their existing one is changing or disappearing. Most organisations need both, and Martec's methodology is built to deliver each with the retail and consumer goods context that generic training lacks.
Which organisations does Martec work with?
Retailers, consumer goods manufacturers, and the technology firms, consultants and service providers who sell to them. The common thread is that every course is written specifically for the retail and consumer goods world, rather than adapted from general business training.
How is Martec's training different from generic e-learning?
The content is industry-specific and written by people who have worked in retail and consumer goods, so the examples, language and priorities match the day job. It is built around a structured upskilling and reskilling methodology rather than a library of standalone videos, which is what turns learning into changed behaviour on the floor.
How do you measure the return on investment from training?
Martec uses a defined approach to return on investment analysis that links training to the business outcomes it is meant to improve, such as sales, margin and productivity, rather than simply tracking course completions. This lets senior sponsors see the commercial effect, not just the activity.
Is the training delivered online, in person, or both?
Both. Martec delivers e-learning through its own learning management system, alongside instructor-led training, assessments and micro-learning. Programmes are commonly blended so that self-paced online learning is reinforced by live sessions where the stakes are highest.
Can Martec support teams in different countries?
Yes. Martec's e-learning is used by learners in 58 countries, delivered and tracked through a central learning management system, which makes it practical to bring a dispersed or international workforce up to a consistent standard.
