Google Workspace training helps teachers to provide better school education across Google Docs, Classrooms and Meet.
This custom-built LMS features an on-brand Googly design, Google SSO and geographically aware learning content to ensure the learning is relevant to all users.
Personalised learning experiences for an employee soft skills LMS
Every learner is different, and what works for one may not work for another, so with Career Masterclass, every learning journey is unique.
Our deep personalisation system understands the learner’s career goals and learning preferences and guides the learner towards the most effective courses, videos and webinars.
Improving learning engagement with gamification and UX
Introducing gamification and improving the user experience are two proven strategies for increasing course engagement and completion rates.
