The last two years have brought about tectonic shifts in the way that we work, live, and learn. In working to understand and reconcile those transformations, people managers face fresh challenges driving L&D within their teams.
In a recent survey of over 600 L&D professionals in the US, 19% of respondents rated boosting learner engagement and completion rates as their top challenge - second only to moving training sessions from in-person to online during the pandemic.
We know from talking to our customers that learners are much more likely to engage with their L&D courses if those courses are introduced to them from their manager than from another source, such as a company-wide email. In fact, we’ve seen a 40% increase in learner engagement when learning content is presented to them by their manager or L&D coach.
So if our goal is to drive adoption from learners, one way to do that is to first make it easier for managers to drive that engagement. In this post, we’ll show you how our manager dashboard streamlines this whole experience.
Learner engagement shouldn’t be hard
The solution is a dedicated dashboard just for people managers that centralizes L&D performance data for their teams. Managers gain a centralized view of their team’s performance and completion data, broken out by course, learner, or team.
Manager dashboard is much more than an analytics hub. It also enables managers to:
- Send automatic reminders to learners who are behind
- Congratulate learners who have completed courses and received high scores
- See how individual courses are performing compared to each other
Email reports make performance management easier
Centralizing your team’s L&D performance data into a single dashboard is a huge workflow enhancement for people managers, but we wondered: could we do even more to make it easier? What if we could eliminate the need for managers to log in at all, and instead automatically bring the insights right to them?
That’s why we created an automated weekly email report that shows top level L&D insights for teams or learners. The email report is more than just data, it also contains actionable CTA links that allow managers to automatically send reminder emails to learners straight from the email.
