Founded in 1970, Actualisation helps organizations acquire, assess and develop talent. We work with human resources professionals and managers to recruit the right people, develop their teams’ skills and support the evolution of their management practices.
Our team brings together consultants, recruiters, trainers, coaches, instructional designers and multimedia integrators. These complementary skills allow us to work across the entire talent value chain, on a specific assignment or as part of a broader initiative.
Since 1970, we have designed, adapted and delivered skills development programs. We develop our own content and work with partners recognized in their fields. When we use a model, we respect its foundations. We also pay close attention to the validity of assessment tools and the available comparison data.
We build our interventions with you. Your culture, practices and objectives are reflected in the content, exercises and tools. Validation milestones help us make sure the solutions meet your expectations and adjust them throughout the project.
Self-assessments, 360-degree questionnaires and skills reviews help identify needs and track progress. Coaching and reinforcement activities then support the application of learning at work.
We support organizations with permanent and temporary recruitment, executive search and outsourcing. We take the time to understand the position, work environment and team expectations to assess candidates’ skills, potential and fit with your organization.
We use online questionnaires, 360-degree assessments and psychometric tools to better understand strengths and development needs. The results can support an individual plan, a career discussion, succession planning or a training pathway.
We offer training and customized pathways in leadership, supervision, communication, personal effectiveness and team development. Activities are designed around participants’ responsibilities and the situations in which they will need to use their new skills.
Our coaches support managers and professionals through their workplace challenges. Sessions provide an opportunity to step back, clarify the actions to take and review their implementation. Coaching can be offered on its own or integrated into a training pathway to support the transfer of learning and follow-up on the development plan.
We conduct organizational assessments and support teams through change management, improvements to practices and succession planning. We also develop competency profiles and development plans based on the organization’s needs.
We design animated videos, interactive modules, serious games and pathways that combine several learning methods. Drawing on your content and your teams’ expertise, we write scripts, prepare activities and carry out multimedia integration. Projects can be developed in French and English.
We develop knowledge management applications, online questionnaires and tools that make learning and knowledge sharing easier. We also offer training in artificial intelligence and training design. Technology choices are based on the intended use, users and your environment.
Actualisation’s origins go back to the Institut de développement humain, founded in 1970 by Jacques Lalanne. The Institute translates, adapts and publishes programs on human development, communication and group dynamics to make them accessible to the French-speaking world.
In 1980, the organization officially takes the name Actualisation IDH inc. Its guides, programs and tools are used by trainers, educators, managers and human resources professionals in Quebec and elsewhere in the French-speaking world.
Over the decades, the offering expands to include leadership development, coaching, consulting and talent acquisition. In 2006, under the presidency of Louis Fortin, Actualisation continues developing its services and proprietary programs, including Gestionnaire d’impact.
The talent acquisition practice draws in particular on the legacy of Option-Ressources, which began operating in Montreal in 1997. In 2022, the integration of the activities and team members of Entreprises Galéphic strengthens this expertise.
Educational innovation accompanies this evolution. Role-playing and group activities have gradually been enriched by simulations, serious games and digital learning. With The Training Minute, Actualisation also makes professional development content accessible through short videos. Today, this expertise extends to the design of digital learning pathways and the development of applications.
To offer a high-quality, integrated training experience that develops skills through a professional, practical and innovative approach.
Four values guide our team in its training and interventions: professionalism, collaboration, innovation and client focus. They are reflected in how we prepare assignments, the quality of our discussions with your teams and the attention we give to your needs.
Do you need help with recruitment, training or professional support? We will take the time to review your situation and propose an approach tailored to your needs.
