As learning and development professionals, we spend a lot of time thinking about how others learn best. We design sessions, build curriculums, and coach individuals to reach their full potential. But here’s a question: when was the last time your own team attended training together?

Too often, we focus on sending individuals to workshops, with the assumption that learning is a solo journey. But when L&D pros train as a team, magic happens. Not only do you gain valuable knowledge, and develop a shared language and framework, but you also build stronger connections, spark fresh ideas, and create a culture where learning is something you do together—not just something you design for others.

Here’s why team training is totally worth it:

More Collaboration, Less Isolation

Let’s be honest. L&D teams can be separated. One person might be building leadership programs, someone else could be focused on onboarding, and a third might be deep in analytics. Team training breaks that pattern. It gives everyone a chance to come together, learn from each other, and realize where the work connects. You’ll come back from that session energized with ideas for how to support each other better—and probably with a few inside jokes, too!

A Safe Space to Learn (and Maybe Struggle)

Training solo can feel intimidating. No one likes being the only person who doesn’t get it. But when you’re learning with your own team, it feels safer to ask questions, try new things, and even make mistakes. You’re all in it together. That vulnerability builds trust. And that trust leads to stronger team dynamics back at work.

Instant Application and Feedback

You likely know the pain of attending a session and then never using what you learned. When your whole team trains together, you’re more likely to apply those concepts right away. You can hold each other accountable, test new ideas in real time, and support each other in turning knowledge into action. Bonus: You’ll also start to spot gaps or opportunities in your own learning strategies.

Culture Booster

Training together says something: “Learning matters here.” It shows your team that you walk the talk. You’re not just telling others to grow; you’re investing in your own development as a group. That kind of role modeling is powerful. It builds credibility and energizes your learning culture from the inside out.

So, if it’s been a while since your L&D crew trained together, maybe it’s time to make it happen. Whether it’s a workshop, a lunch-and-learn, or even a half-day retreat, learning as a team isn’t just good for morale—it’s smart strategy. After all, the best way to create a learning culture is to live it.

If you’re ready to bring your team together for a hands-on training experience, with collaborative exercises, group discussions, and more, check out our team training workshops. Feel free to also submit a training request and we’ll help you plan a successful, worry-free program. Your entire group will start applying consistent approaches and terminology and quickly become more productive and committed to quality training!
