360Learning: The Instagram of Learning
360Learning’s collaborative learning platform provides executives with the tools needed to create unique learning experiences and share knowledge between teams. Learners collaborate in social environments, participate in learning communities, and are actively engaged in bite-sized, fun content.
Think of 360Learning as the Instagram of learning. Instagram disrupted the photo-editing market by making everyone an expert with easy and accessible software. Now anyone can upload a photo, edit it, and share it with their communities.
In the same regard, 360Learning has disrupted the workplace learning experience. With the 360Learning engagement platform, everyone can create a course, make it look compelling, and share it with their communities of learners.
“As we spend more time online, organizations are recognizing the power of collaborative learning. In fact, 75% of learners say collaboration is the most important way they learn” said Josh Bersin, global industry analyst and founder of Bersin™ by Deloitte. “360Learning is a pioneering platform that delivers collaborative learning in a unique way and helps L&D teams embed collaboration into the flow of work.”
360Learning opened its New York City office in 2018 and celebrated the opening of its London location in mid-March. The company expects to announce new solutions and offers at the Association of Talent Development International Conference & Exposition in Washington, D.C., in May 2019.
