LatitudeLearning® attended the AutoTech Meetup in Detroit with other industry leaders collaborating to address the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of the Connected In-Vehicle Experience.

There are several key points to consider when developing a training program that will ultimately support your business goals. We’ve compiled the top 7 factors to focus on when you’re working to ensure your training program is moving your business forward.

LatitudeLearning LMS helps support the metrics that impact your business by integrating your KPIs into the training and using that data to guide training assignments, maintain accreditation, and incent specific business behaviors based on the overall training and established KPI expectations. This is a critical feature that many other LMS platforms aren’t equipped to provide. 

Hiring can be an intense process, as hiring managers are looking to fill gaps that are left open by turnover or created through growing pains. Either way, these gaps need to be filled quickly to get the company operating as efficiently as possible. This is where training enters the scene.

Partner networks like those in the OEM Dealer Model have tons of metrics that are measured every day, to drive business forward. Too often, these metrics are managed independently from their training programs. As a result, dealership training programs struggle, like everyone else, to understand how the training has an impact on the business they support. 

LatitudeLearning recently partnered with Brandon Hall Group, a consulting firm in the learning arena, to deliver a webinar entitled “Extended Enterprise Learning: Has the Pandemic Changed Anything?” I joined Brandon Hall Group’s human capital management podcast for a fascinating discussion on the pandemic’s prolonged impact on the corporate learning environment.

Training is a vital element to success for many industries. As industry leaders, we tend to focus exclusively on the training and development of our employees. In the process, we're missing out on the opportunity to train our partners. 

Training the right people at the right time is critical for the success of partner networks and extended enterprises. By ensuring that all parties involved have the knowledge and skills needed to do their jobs effectively, partnerships can function seamlessly. 

Dealerships and partner networks are facing a new reality regarding the influx of talent they’re receiving. Trade schools continue to produce dealership and partner-ready talent, but not at the volume to fill the demands. As a result, organizations have reduced their requirements to entry in hopes of finding raw talent they can grow.

Ask a training manager what the Return On Investment (ROI) is on their Learning Management System (LMS) and you might hear them struggling for an answer. They might say, “Well, learning is good.” 

The objective of any training program is to prove that the courses you’re offering learners will have a measurable impact. In the LMS space, some deliver that impact better than others. 

Let’s take a closer look at three areas that position the LatitudeLearning LMS above the rest – certifications, brands and product lines, and performance metrics. These factors help transform your extended enterprise training program.

If your company isn't providing high-quality service to your customers, it stands to reason that you won't retain those customers. You may move products, but if you aren’t also selling parts and services, you’re hurting your business.
