challenges
Another problem was the inefficiency of face-to-face trainings. These had to be carried out in several small groups, which costs both the employees and Ms. Schock very much time and the motivation of the participants was not always high.
The solution by skillsforwork
The introduction of skillsforwork as a digital learning platform, has helped overcome these challenges. Ms. Schock largely opted for e-learnings, to provide all employees with flexible learning. The platform made it possible for the employees to complete the training in small, manageable units, which significantly increased acceptance and learning success. Particularly useful was the opportunity to complete the training at any time and at their own pace. The acceptance was high among office workers, especially on topics such as first aid, fire protection and data protection. In production the feedback was Initially mixed, but the flexibility of the platform and the ability to take tests after each learning session increased employee engagement.
Particularly noteworthy is the fact that Ms. Schock did not pressure the participants to pass the tests, but gave them the freedom to finish the courses at their own pace . With modules on still rather unknown topics such as phishing and data protection, the participants felt motivated to acquire new knowledge. This approach led to a positive feedback. The production showed a growing awareness of the safety aspects. Wearing hearing protection and safety clothing was accepted.
Recommendations
Petra Schock recommends to other companies that have similar occupational safety challenges the use of skillsforwork. Particularly noteworthy is the flexibility of the platform, which it allows participants to organise their training independently and in small, easy modules to learn. Ms. Schock recommends skillsforwork in particular companies that cannot offer internal email addresses for their employees. For such companies, the platform offers an excellent solution for user login and administration.
