Vector Solutions announced the new Direct Links feature to its award-winning Learning Management System (LMS). This addition allows companies in industries like construction, manufacturing, transportation, and facilities management to enhance their multi-platform learning ecosystems, resulting in increased employee engagement and accelerated skill acquisition. With 24/7 access to essential training resources, Direct Links helps create safer workers and drive better business outcomes.
Organizations often face challenges in providing timely training materials within daily workflows. Accessing content across multiple systems creates inefficiencies and disengages employees, especially in dispersed teams. In fact, nearly half of workers report inadequate training for success in their roles. To improve knowledge retention and performance, it's crucial to offer seamless just-in-time content (training delivered right when it is needed to address specific tasks or challenges), especially regarding safety awareness, in easily digestible formats like microlearning. As proof, employees are 76% more likely to stay at companies that provide continuous training.
The addition of Direct Links into the Vector Solutions LMS addresses these challenges by enabling the creation of links and QR codes for specific training activities, such as safety tips, job aids, continued education courses, quizzes, and task lists. These links can then be shared via digital communication channels or even posted on machinery, offering greater visibility and access when and where it's needed. By guiding learners directly to the intended content, Direct Links eliminates the need to navigate multiple systems, creating a smoother user experience. Key benefits of the Direct Links feature include:
- Seamless access to content: Learners are directed straight to their assigned or elective training content, bypassing the need to navigate through the LMS.
- Security and control: Each link is secured by a login requirement, ensuring that only authorized users can access the content.
- Just-in-time training: Administrators can share training resources in real-time, reducing time-to-proficiency and improving on-the-job performance.
- Cross-platform functionality: Links and QR codes can be shared via email, chat, or third-party systems, supporting diverse learning environments.
- Flexible content integration: Direct Links supports integration with various learning ecosystems, enabling organizations to deliver content in alignment with immersive, blended learning strategies.
"Direct Links facilitates instant access to necessary training content, ensuring employees receive targeted learning when and where it's needed most," said Clare Epstein, General Manager at Vector Solutions. "This enhancement helps organizations improve workforce efficiency and engagement by removing barriers to accessing critical learning resources."
