A Variety of L&D Content and Tools Boosts User Representation
Training Industry identified ‘Client and user representation’ as one of the criteria to make its top LMS list—echoing our own commitment to inclusion. Peter Brussard, President at Bridge, states that:
I'm thrilled to see Training Industry recognize Bridge as a top LMS company. We're so proud that our all-in-one solution is helping organizations around the world. We know that 'Client and user representation' was a key criterion for making the list, and we're delighted that our platform has hit the mark. We aim to keep inspiring learners with our engaging and accessible platform for years to come.
Here are just a couple of ways Bridge helps users from all kinds of backgrounds stay focused on learning outcomes:
Flexible Learning Pathways Make Courses More Manageable
Organizations that want to keep all employees engaged should pay careful attention to the pacing of their modules. No learner likes it when a ton of courses are dumped on them at once—breaking learning up into manageable steps is more likely to meet the accessibility needs of your busy employees. Our flexible learning journeys let you schedule smaller content releases. This means you can easily spread your essential training out across the year and complement employee development with optional courses as and when required.
Personalized Learning Journeys Help Every Learner Excel
You want to meet the individual needs of all of your learners—but this is no small feat. It can be challenging to help every employee develop their skills to progress their career in the ways that matter to them. Bridge’s skill management features make it easier. Managers can easily collect skills feedback on their reports—from their teammates or the wider organization. This helps them to build personalized development plans that meet the unique needs of each employee. They can assign courses that align with a report's skill goals in a few clicks and easily track their progress.
