Five Ways Innovative U Will Make Your Organization More Efficient

We recently unveiled Innovative U, Inntopia’s newest eLearning tool. Innovative U is available to all partners and suppliers who want to learn more about Inntopia’s product suite – whether you need to brush-up on a specific area or learn about a new feature, Innovative U is your one-stop shop to review content, test your skills and knowledge, and offer your ideas of Inntopia topics you’d like to learn about.

There are several reasons why eLearning trends are on the rise and organizations are moving to an eLearning business model. The following five reasons show how Inntopia’s new eLearning platform, Innovative U, will help streamline efficiencies within your organization.

1- Save Time and Money
Time is money and having an eLearning solution saves time. Most Inntopia partners don’t have a dedicated in-house resource for their internal training, which means that managers, supervisors, or other staff must spearhead the “training program,” which takes them from their daily responsibilities. Innovative U lets you assign your team to an ongoing training program that they can work on when time permits. Innovative U makes getting your new hires up and running each season a breeze. Assign the relevant courses and let Innovative U do the work for you: with tests, quizzes, and gamifications available, you can track your new hires’ knowledge verification to see areas in which they might need more assistance or where they excel.

Training has its Challenges

 

2- Wait, are we talking about the same thing?
It is easy to get sidetracked on trainings. We can talk about anything from business process, to the resistance your team is expressing in the change you are proposing, to brainstorming all of the exciting things you can do after applying the subject at hand. Trainers try to keep their learners on track, but it doesn’t always happen. Before you know it, time is up and not all of the material was covered or was not covered as accurately as intended. This can pose a challenge for your team internally if your team has different understandings of a topic, or not everyone has all the information needed. Innovative U offers consistent content that can be revisited at any point. Consistent content provides the foundation your team needs to be successful together.

3- Scheduling Conflicts No More!
We have all tried to schedule meetings with multiple people from our organization and have probably been unsuccessful in finding that one 30-minute time slot in which everyone is available; it is a nearly impossible task. Innovative U allows your team to learn the required material when their schedule allows. Short videos, creative documents, and gamifications all in one central location offer the opportunity to learn a subject in about three to eight minutes.

4- Learn at Your Pace
You have a free five minutes to review the course on a particular topic. The video available is only three minutes, so feel free to rewind, skip through, or re-watch the video as many time as you feel necessary. Innovative U is easy to control, allowing you to set your pace. It’s your time, control it.

Course Example

 

5- Hours of Operation is for the Birds
There are no set hours of operation on Innovative U. Just like your beloved Netflix, log in late night, early morning, while waiting at the airport, or on your morning commute (as long as it’s not your turn to drive the carpool) – log on and learn something!
