What's included

Three pieces that work together

Learners prepare on their own, you answer questions live, and the surveys tell you what stuck.

    6 lessons, about 45 minutes, with 36 interactive activities.

  • Live session deck

    10 slides to run after the course, in the room or online.

  • Two surveys

    Post-course feedback and a 30-day check-in, anonymous by default, so you know whether the training is used on the job.

Completion is tracked for you

  • Who has finished

    See who has not started, who is in progress and who has completed the course.

  • Every score

    Each learner's answers to the quizzes and activities in the course.

  • What landed

    Survey results show what people took away, and the 30-day check-in shows whether they use it.
