When talent, performance and development processes sit in separate tools, organisations lose consistency, visibility and momentum. Maps and Pathways was built to change that.
There’s a clear picture nationally of the need for change when it comes to these, when research shows that…
Maps and Pathways brings appraisal, feedback, development and governance activity into one place so organisations can run more consistent processes without creating more admin.
We have been—and always will be—guided by people’s stories and experiences and led by customer feedback rather than guessing what people want. We don’t have a monopoly on good ideas or an exclusivity on the best way of doing things.
We don’t have the perfect solution yet, but we’d like you to join us and our partners exploring the art of the possible so one day we do.

Why organisations choose Maps and Pathways
Multi-area organisation model
Multi-connection SSO and SAML foundations
Configurable templates, labels and Traits frameworks
Role-scoped governance and reporting areas
Role-based access, MFA support, scoped administration, SSO foundations and observability work support secure, controlled rollouts.
In-product Help Centre content, guided admin experiences and module-level rollout controls reduce change-management friction.
These are live capabilities today across appraisal, feedback, reflection, competency growth, LMS delivery, surveys, reporting and access governance. Feature availability can vary by role, module setting and organisation configuration.
Guidance Hub
The guidance hub turns the source pack into role-based journeys for appraisees, appraisers, and organisational leaders, so people can move from feature awareness into practical use without opening a slide deck first.
Practical ideas on performance, talent, and culture.

Professional growth works better when it is built on ongoing conversations, reflection and clarity, rather than a once-a-year appraisal ritual.

we-re-ready-to-have-more-conversations
Maps and Pathways has grown through close collaboration with organisations like Active Learning Trust and Eden Academy. We are now opening the next chapter, ready to engage with more organisations and explore how we can support meaningful development conversations.
Real requests from customers and partners — live, in progress, and planned. If something matters to you, we’ll work with you to make it happen.
Configurable career pathways linked to job family structures, giving organisations a clearer route from role expectations to development planning.
Why it helps: Connects appraisal outcomes to progression pathways and development conversations.
Multi-connection SSO remains active and SAML Phase 1 foundations are now in place, with clearer provider-aware login and admin experiences.
Why it helps: Improves sign-in experience and supports more practical identity management across larger structures.
Training workflows now support approval requests and responses alongside the richer training reporting already in place.
Why it helps: Makes development activity easier to govern from request through approval and reporting.
Traits has expanded from a single flow into configurable frameworks with broader aspect and dropdown setup, better history behaviour and aligned Help Centre guidance.
Why it helps: Lets organisations use reflection tooling in language that matches their own framework, culture and development model.
Catalogue, pathways, assignments, enrolments, assessments, transcripts and compliance-aware reporting are now represented across learner, manager and admin workflows.
Why it helps: Connects learning delivery more directly to competency development and compliance workflows, while publishing and versioning refinements continue.
Survey templates, campaign creation and editing, invitee response and decline flows, results views and lifecycle actions are now live in the platform.
Why it helps: Gives organisations a controlled way to listen at scale without moving responses, ownership and results into separate tools.
