Sound Advice Tue, 19 May 2026 11:35:06 +0100 https://staffskillsacademy.co.uk/ en-gb © 2026 Sound Advice yes 04045200-44bb-5115-b558-a01c26e5bc2c academy+ episodic false Sound Advice is the podcast for people who care about workplace learning that actually makes a difference. 

Each episode features a thought-provoking conversation with someone from the world of L&D or HR, where they unpack the issues that matter right now – from building capable managers to tackling everyday challenges in growing organisations. It’s practical, human and refreshingly jargon-light, with real stories and examples that make complex topics feel manageable (and relevant).

One free-to-air episode is released each month. Averaging 8 to 10 minutes long, they’re the ideal length to take a short break away from the screen (and we all know how important that is), stand up and stretch, go for a walk, or take time out to make a tea. 


If you'd like access to the full back catalogue - alongside 700+ CPD-certified courses, interactive skills challenges and a host of wellbeing resources - you can find out more about what we do at www.staffskillsacademy.co.uk.
