Training Success Stories
The TrainingToDo training engine was initially designed as a training records database for an association and then evolved to add in the training and testing delivery functions. The following are three examples of successful customers experiences with TrainingToDo.
Professional Trainers - Altitude Training Solutions Inc. offers training solutions to companies in Canada for several aviation related training courses. These were typically multi day workshop style courses offered across Canada. In an effort to provide better value to the Trainees and their organizations Altitude restructured the course from a three day workshop to a one day online course and a two day workshop course. Elements such as learning terminology and definitions, watching videos, and ensuring everyone has the basic knowledge to participate in the interactive training course were put into a seven module online delivered course. Companies can now sign up 50 to 75 trainees and they are emailed the login information. The ones who complete the online module can then sign up for an upcoming workshop session. Everyone has benefited from this change to add an online training option. For Altitude it has increased their training capacity, improved customer satisfaction, and improved the margins on their training. For the Trainees they can now move at their own pace through the course materials and save a day of travel time. For the organizations they have a much more efficient system for managing the training records and scheduling who needs training and retraining.
Corporate Training - Safety and Health Training is a great example of how many companies are using online training to ensure they are in compliance with the requirements for safety and health training. WHMIS training is a very common requirement for most businesses in Canada. Through SafeAndCertified.com individuals can sign up online, access the training materials, take a test, and receive their certificate of completion in an email. And companies can do the same for all of their employees. This is a more efficient way to deliver the training as people go at their own pace and can complete it in less time. It is also much easier for companies to schedule training which they can do in seconds compared to trying to get together large enough groups of employees to make a group training session work.
Certifications and Associations - Massage Therapists Association of Manitoba (MTAM) has over 500 members who have an ongoing learning requirement for Continuing Education (CE). The association had outgrown the ability to manage this in a spreadsheet. TrainingToDo offered a great way to manage each member's profile information, their training activities, and see instantly where each member was in terms of meeting the CE requirements. This makes it possible for the association to manage a program like this with much less time and people than before. For the members they now have a self serve option to manage their training records.
