Align Training with Agency Goals

Does your training actually make an impact on your mandate?

Tough times call for tough decisions. When it comes to slashing expenses, government agencies are faced with the unenviable task of cutting programs that do not clearly improve the bottom line. And unfortunately, learning programs often are the first to go.

Why? It’s due, at least in part, to the difficulty in accurately measuring the benefits of learning. Total ROI has long been the primary measure for determining the value of learning programs. But those calculations are often only based on the sheer number of employees trained. It’s time to move away from the standardized metrics and toward an Impact On Mandate (IOM) model with Blackboard Learn™ for Government.

Blackboard Learn enables a positive IOM with tools that enable fast, intuitive content creation and course deployment. Leverage its capabilities in conjunction with your existing system of record and you will create a highly effective and efficient learning environment.

As one example, the Department of Homeland Security must successfully train over 200,000 dedicated men and women with a powerful mandate to maintain the safety of American citizens in the face of constantly evolving threats. The Blackboard Learn platform can help by facilitating training and knowledge transfer with an intuitive interface that enables experts to develop content in hours or days, not weeks or months. Information would be disseminated rapidly, and most importantly, learners would have the ability to instantly interact with that information.

Turn to Blackboard Learn for the training that your employees need throughout their careers and drive impact on your agency’s stated objectives.
