learning and training scheduling

Scheduling annual training for a workforce comprised of over 50,000 employees is a daunting task. Each employee works different shifts, keeps their own schedule, has vacations, dentist appointments, and is working full time so are already very busy.  A Fortune 500 company wanted to schedule classroom training for employees that recognized and respected their individual schedules and work hours.  

AboutTime worked with the existing Learning Management System and Staff Scheduling system to implement a system that scheduled classrooms, instructors, locations, and students so that the individual schedules of each employee was taken into consideration. Instead of booking a course and seeing how many employees registered for it, the company could book the course, room, instructors and students to ensure everyone was available and that their calendars were updated and filled in.  

The result is a much higher attendance at courses, more effective training, and a higher completion rate. By honoring employees individual schedules and shifts when scheduling courses, companies can achieve much more effective and productive staff.
