Training approach

The lessons feature videos, text, scenarios and other learning activities to help you build and apply the knowledge to ordinary business decisions and situations.

Before working with Skillcast, our mandatory and refresher training was a labour-intensive process focused on administration and keeping materials up to date. Now, it’s a system that delivers 100% compliance with up-to-date and relevant material. It has freed us up as a business to concentrate far more on the learner experience instead of ticking boxes.”
