Triple Learning Loop: A Research-Led Partnership Driving Impact

At Exemplas, we believe that effective business support is built on evidence, experience, and a relentless commitment to improvement. That’s why our long-standing partnership with Leeds Beckett University is central to how we work.

Together, we’ve developed the Triple Learning Loop (TLL) – a pioneering framework that integrates academic research, programme delivery, and real-world insight. Born from early collaboration under the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS)-funded Business Basics programme in 2018, the TLL has matured into a dynamic model that underpins our approach to productivity and growth support.

The TLL connects:

  • Programme Design – grounded in robust research and practical experience.
  • Programme Delivery – continuously improved through real-time feedback, frontline learning, and operational insight.
  • Programme Evaluation – generating actionable insights, impact assessments, and evidence-based recommendations.

What sets the TLL apart is its built-in mechanism for continuous improvement. Each cycle of delivery is not just an endpoint; it’s a learning opportunity. Insights from delivery teams, participant feedback, and performance data are fed back into the design and evaluation process, ensuring that every programme iteration is sharper, more relevant, and more impactful than the last.

The Triple Learning Loop is more than a methodology. It’s a mindset of learning, adaptation, and excellence. It’s one of the key reasons why Exemplas and Leeds Beckett University are recognised as market leaders in delivering high-impact business support.
