LaborEdge: Andrew, in what ways has the implementation of Agency-U contributed to operational improvements in your organization?

Andrew Sepehri: One of the primary reasons we were drawn to and ultimately chose to move forward with LaborEdge, was their unique approach in positioning themselves as a partner, not just a vendor. Their commitment to helping us develop a comprehensive training program within Nexus was a significant benefit. This support was crucial for us, as we felt it was something we were lacking internally. The partnership with LaborEdge and the implementation of Agency-U has been instrumental in enhancing our training and development capabilities.

LaborEdge: We pride ourselves in our ability to tailor content for the most effective learning experience. What challenges did Agency-U help overcome with these key customizations?

AS: Agency-U has been instrumental in addressing our learning and development challenges by allowing us to build tailored training courses specific to each role within our organization. This customization ensures that every employee receives relevant and role-specific training on how to interact with Nexus, which has significantly improved our operational efficiency. Additionally, the tailored training programs have been essential in better preparing new employees for success from day one. By aligning the training content with the actual tasks and responsibilities of each role, we've been able to enhance our onboarding process and ensure a smoother transition for new hires into their positions.

LaborEdge: We would love to hear your favorite features of Agency-U.

AS: The ability of the LaborEdge team to integrate our custom content: The team's capability to take our existing materials, such as PowerPoints, SOPs, and other resources, and seamlessly incorporate them into the training modules has been incredibly beneficial. This integration ensures that our unique processes and guidelines are thoroughly communicated to our employees, maintaining consistency and relevance across all training programs.

The ability to build out custom interactive training courses: The platform's flexibility in allowing us to create custom interactive training has significantly enhanced engagement and learning retention among our staff. These interactive elements make the training sessions more dynamic and effective, enabling employees to better grasp and apply the knowledge in their daily tasks. This feature has been crucial in ensuring that our training is not only informative but also engaging and impactful.

LaborEdge: Can you tell us about your experience with LaborEdge’s Digital Learning team?

This shift allows us to appeal to various learning styles, making our training more inclusive and effective. The ability to offer diverse training formats has already shown promise in engaging our employees better and providing a more dynamic and comprehensive learning experience.
