The Learning and Development Online Resource Library for Organizations
Learning and Development Center is an online platform and digital resource library.
The library consists of more than 150 training and development materials that are published as digital resources (books). The book’s pages turn as if a paper manuscript, there are pop-ups for assessments and worksheets, boxes for inputs, feedback, and narrative, quizzes, summaries, next steps, pocket guides, and so much more.
All of the resources have been authored by our team of more than 100 authors and have never been published before. Our editorial construct focuses on situational learning (how to) and not theoretical works. Therefore the materials are very practical and accessible by the full range and dimension of today’s workforce.
Users access the system with secure username and password and have unlimited (yes unlimited) access to all the resources, including all new publications as they become available throughout the year. This means you and your employees always have access to new and fresh materials, and at no additional cost.
There are numerous features such as, tracking and reporting, branding, the ability to offer different or limited resources to selected populations, including access to company-materials, converting your conventional materials to the digital format, and more.
