Why does your e-learning solution need to be integrated with your LMS?

In information and communication technologies, a learning management system (LMS) or learning support system (LSS) is a software that allows the management and centralisation of training courses for all employees.

These learning management systems allow companies to manage, deliver and evaluate their online training programme. Thus, with an LMS, it is possible to design, develop and make available to employees, courses directly accessible on the software. The courses can be remote, i.e. they are not necessarily online but can be accessed desynchronously, and learners can obtain the courses at any time they wish, by e-mail, post or other medium. Training can also take the form of e-learning, which means carrying out training, a course or learning through a digital platform, via a computer connected to the Internet.

LMSs have the advantage of being central tools in the company and are therefore often used by the whole group. They are complete, but not specialised in digital learning… unlike us.

Once an organisation invests in training and provides its employees with independent training systems around an LMS, learners have access to a variety of content, through different media. However, integrating this course content into a single platform would improve the learning experience for employees and facilitate access to training.

So what is integration with an LMS and why is it useful for engaging learners in training?

To make learning ever more fluid, accessible and continuous, it is possible to integrate e-learning platforms – also known as LXP (Learning Experience Platforms) – with a learning management system, such as LMSs. Thus, integration with an LMS consists of merging the learning management system with the e-learning applications already used in the company.

Today, the training sector is faced with new needs. Digitalization and new work organizations are shaping new uses. In order to respond to this, training must be integrated into the organisation’s existing systems.

Learning at the click of a button

In our connected environments, we have become accustomed to having our uses made easier, and user experiences increasingly tailored to user behaviour. The primary benefit of integrating a learning solution into your learning management system is ease of access. With single sign on (SSO), learners can log in and access their training programme without having to use separate credentials (usernames and passwords). Similar to using your Facebook or Google account to log into a site, single sign-on allows users to access the content of the platform or site in question with one click. For training, enabling learners to access training content more easily and quickly is a crucial issue for engaging them in their learning. Integrating your digital learning applications with an LMS allows you to have a single entry point, which is easier to understand for everyone.

An improved experience for all users!

Integration with LMSs is not only beneficial for the user experience of learners. It also greatly improves the use and follow-up of training solutions for learning managers in HR and Learning & Development (L&D) departments. By integrating an e-learning platform directly into your organisation’s LMS, learner profiles are created automatically, simplifying deployment across multiple subsidiaries or BUs. Learner activity data, such as course completions, is also automatically fed back into the LMS, which facilitates reporting (see Better performance and monitoring indicators). Integration with an LMS promises considerable time savings for training teams.

Integrate to engage

By making it easier to access your e-learning solution through its integration into your learning management system, you can increase traffic and the number of connections. In addition to improving your key performance indicators, these increases indicate that the training is being followed and appreciated by your teams! Continuous learning means learning on a daily basis and therefore learning in the flow of work. The increase in skills can only be effective if training is accessible everywhere, all the time, through integration.

Better performance and monitoring indicators

With the integration, the monitoring of the platform’s performance is greatly improved. Reports and evaluations are automatically generated and accessible directly on your LMS. This means you can quickly and easily find all the metrics you need to track the progress and engagement of your learners in their learning. This data is essential to improve your training solution and better meet your needs. The integration allows you to find all the training data you need in one click, all on the same platform.

An interface and pedagogy designed to make people want to learn

Improving the user experience is not only a question of accessibility. It is also a question of interface and therefore of design. In order to invest learners in their training, it is necessary to integrate an e-learning platform that meets their needs and expectations. This applies both to the design of the platform and to the way in which the course is delivered. Integration with an LMS means above all being able to offer learners a web user experience worthy of the name, to make training more enjoyable and to reinforce the uses of e-learning platforms.

In terms of interface, our Coorpacademy training platform is inspired by the codes of video games: quizzes, battles between learners, life quotas to validate – or not – a course module, etc. Learners benefit from a real learning experience that is fun, digital and that makes them active in their training. Because we are convinced that training must adapt to new uses, we also offer premium content, developed through a reversed pedagogy: we ask the learner questions before presenting the lesson. And the lesson – in the form of a video for the most part – does not exceed 5 minutes, so that learners remain active during the course. We also invent innovative formats such as the digital Escape Game or more recently, the Cybercafé podcast, which once again respond to the uses of the modern world.

What are you waiting for to integrate Coorpacademy into your LMS?

Training is becoming digital, not only because of previous confinements, but also because the digital transformation of companies implies maximising the use of digital tools. Today, the challenge is to make the processes around training even easier. Accessibility, user experience, performance monitoring, e-learning platforms are a formidable lever for optimising your LMS and your global training offer. By integrating Coorpacademy into your LMS, give your learners access to courses co-published with renowned publishers, and make training an entertaining, instructive and collaborative moment!

The Coorpacademy platform as a progression tool for employees: a Square Management success

Since 2019, we have been supporting Square Management‘s employees in training, in order to promote their upskilling on various subjects and their progression within the group.

Square Management met with one of the 3 co-founders of Coorpacademy, Arnauld Mitre, to discuss the benefits of this partnership. Back to this interview which describes the projects and successes of this partnership!

A continuously evolving collaboration

This partnership with Square Management began in early 2019. The platform was first made available within two of the group’s practices and then, as more and more employees showed their commitment to training on Coorpacademy, we expanded the partnership to the entire group practice in early 2020. To date, we have trained around 700 Square Management employees thanks to the Coorpacademy platform.

Why choose Coorpacademy as your online training solution?

The need expressed by Square Management was clear. Training was a pillar to accompany the progression of the employees within the group and to enable them to increase their skills, improve their performance and guarantee their employability. Thus, several elements guided the choice of the consulting firm:

A catalog of premium content

The off-the-shelf catalog that we offer contains premium contents, with courses created in collaboration with publishing partners and our team of educational engineers, and also the possibility of using an authoring tool in order to add their own content to the training catalog. Square Management also chose Coorpacademy to accompany the training of their employees because the consulting firm had a real need to train on specific subjects, such as management, leadership and other soft skills, which our catalog covers in depth.

Certifying courses, to validate the expertise of the consultants

Another success factor of the Coorpacademy platform within Square Management is the possibility to validate a range of courses corresponding to a field of excellence of the consulting firm. With this functionality, the consultants could concretely validate their acquired knowledge but also motivate themselves to complete the set of courses thanks to the delivery of a certificate once the set is completed. One of the success factors of the platform today is therefore the strong match between Coorpacademy and Square’s training teams, which gives employees the possibility to use the platform as a tool for their career progression.

Employees seduced by the platform gaming universe

Another aspects that has generated so much enthusiasm for Coorpacademy is the significant attraction for the gaming universe that the platform offers and which is also possible thanks to our pedagogy. Indeed, the Square consultants particularly appreciate the video game inspired functionalities: the quiz format, the player’s life which designates the chance given to them to progress in the course, the battles between learners, etc. The consultants really played the game. This motivation is also rewarded, because we also have a feature that is obviously rather positive, where we present the 20 best participants on the platform. This motivates learners to go to the platform and challenge each other to commit to training.

Pedagogical innovations to encourage collaboration

At Coorpacademy, our objective is to release one pedagogical innovation per quarter. The latest one: the Escape Game “The Forum of Babel“. In this innovative format, learners will join forces to climb the four floors of the digital Tower of Babel. Each week, they are provided with documents and clues to solve a riddle. A Babel Forum is also available for peer-to-peer exchange. In this Escape Game, collaboration is key to finding the answers to the riddles. Employees had only one week to decipher each puzzle and reach the top of the tower! This format generated a lot of engagement among Square Management’s consultants, who won the collaboration award with the highest number of exchanges on the forums.

Previously, we also launched an interactive series, “Suspects“, where the goal was to help conduct three interrogations – one per episode – by applying behavioral skills, the famous soft skills. And most recently, we launched a podcast series called “Cybercafé“, to learn about the great history of the Web!

A final word

The success of this collaboration would not have been as great without the involvement of Square Management’s training teams, with whom we are thrilled to keep this partnership going. We look forward to seeing the learners engage in their training and learn things! As Arnauld Mitre reminds us, at Coorpacademy, we believe that all means are good to learn something, even the most unusual ones, such as gaming.

Learn and work at the same time or when training is just a click away

If like 91% of French and European HR managers, you consider skills development to be a strategic lever for the company, then this article should interest you. This figure is one of the four basic trends identified in the CEGOS 2020 European barometer “Transformation, skills and learning“, which questioned 1783 employees and 254 Human Resources Directors or Managers / Training Directors or Managers (HRD/HRM/HRM) all working in private sector companies with 50 employees or more.

Businesses are facing new challenges, transformations of all kinds, tensions, uncertain futures, and to face this evolving context, the competencies’ development is a key subject that allows the growth of organizational and individual resilience within the company. In the same study, 88% of the companies surveyed adapted their training offer during the health crisis, and 75% of the levers activated by HRDs to face the impact of digital transformations were based on skills development.

To foster skills development, we need to focus on learning, which in turn relies on training that must be continuous, accessible, and above all, integrated with the applications and tools already existing in the organization. This is the new paradigm that is shaking up training and the HR function: Learning in the flow of work.

Training integrated into employees’ work life

In his article “A New Paradigm For Corporate Training: Learning In The Flow of Work“, Josh Bersin describes this model for Deloitte. Companies are implementing solutions to support continuous learning, but the entry point to training is quick and easy access to the learning tool. As J. Bersin points out in his report for Deloitte, an employee will spend only 1% of a working day learning new skills. By integrating a training solution directly into the work tools, employees will be able to devote more time to their learning and thus develop their skills much more effectively.

With a short format, personalized content, and a learner-centric learning experience, training is transformed. Learning in the flow of work allows you to learn whenever you need to, at any time of the day. It is when faced with a difficulty, being able to train in a few minutes to overcome this obstacle. You’ve probably already found yourself not knowing something, looking for the answer to a question you’re asking yourself, right? Your first reflex is to “Google” your question? This is already a first step towards Learning in the flow of work as you learn at the very moment you need it.

With learning in the flow of work, you are only one click away from accessing training content, most often in the form of microlearning (course formats reduced to a few minutes). For example, on the Coorpacademy platform, our 5-minute learnings allow you to understand a subject very quickly and without interrupting your work. If you need to understand the stakes of 5G, what is SCRUM, or develop your agility in a few minutes, to meet an immediate need, learning in the flow of work is an adequate answer. Directly integrated into your organization’s productivity spaces, you can, in record time, immerse yourself in a subject that may have seemed complex at first. Learning while working also means better retention of information, because not only do we really need it when we learn it, but we also put into action what we have learned, in a short period. By making these tools available to employees, the company creates an agile culture and develops reflexes, so that training is a real tool for change.

What revolutionizes learning in the flow of work is temporality. While traditional training requires the mobilization of a specific time, even when it is done remotely, this new paradigm revolutionizes our learning time by integrating it into our professional life. It all lies in its name: it is integrated into our workflow and becomes an integral part of the daily life of the employee, the learner, the individual in general, as they progress in their daily tasks. Training time adapts to the learner and not the other way around, the content comes directly to them, i.e. at work.

Learning in the flow of work also means promoting agility, an essential skill to develop in a constantly changing world. Better adapted to the challenges of tomorrow, but also employees’ needs, this model improves employee’s experience, who no longer perceives training as an imposed time, but rather as their initiative to nourish their curiosity and to upskill. By integrating training into employees’ workflows, we also make the learner an actor of their learning path. With more involved, engaged, and interested learners, the impact of training increases and influences employee satisfaction, and ultimately the overall productivity of the organization.

In short, learning in the flow of work means integrating digital learning content and an engaging learning experience directly into the employee’s work environment. In other words, it means integrating the functionalities of a training platform into professional software, accessible to employees at any time. For training to become natural, access to online training must be simplified, allowing an increase in usage. Without interrupting the work in progress, learning in the workflow is a revolution that not only trains employees in the essential skills of tomorrow but also provides them with the skills they need for today.

But then, how do you integrate learning into the employee’s work environment? Learning in the flow of work requires the integration of tools within human resources management information systems (HRIS) and software that accompany and manage the learning paths of employees, the LMS (Learning Management System).

New skills available on the Coorpacademy catalog!

Coorpacademy’s catalog is being renewed to better meet the training expectations of tomorrow. In a constantly evolving environment, it is necessary to know how to train continuously. To do so, it is crucial to identify the essential skills to be acquired. As mentioned in our article on the 10 key skills to be developed by 2025, identified by the World Economic Forum in its Future of Jobs 2020 report, training is essential to prepare companies and employees for the challenges that will disrupt them, and to anticipate the major transformations to come. While we already cover 100% of the skills identified by the World Economic Forum, we are investing in new skills for the future, such as sustainable thinking!

Therefore, we are glad to enrich our training catalog with 3 new skills. The ones that we, and the World Economic Forum, believe will shape the future of work in the years to come. In order to better accompany you in the training of your employees, in your upskilling or simply to feed your curiosity, discover the new skills to be developed on Coorpacademy:

Adaptability and Resilience

Showing adaptation and resilience is crucial in all circumstances. We can never say it enough, being prepared for the unexpected is essential to remain efficient and not to be destabilized by the obstacles we encounter. For companies, developing a culture of adaptability and resilience allows them to prepare for the unexpected, paradoxically. 2020 has shown that the unexpected is often confusing, which is why you should learn how to react to such situations, and do so before the next event.

Sustainable thinking

The next (r)evolution will be ecological and to prepare for it, we are adding the competence entitled “sustainable thinking” in the Coorpacademy catalog. The ecological transformation of companies involves numerous stakes and the changes it implies must be thought sustainably, in order to conceive an organization that would take into account its whole ecosystem (economic, social and environmental) to build a sustainable model. To begin the acculturation to these vital subjects, we’re adding the sustainable thinking competence to the Coorpacademy catalog!

Learning to learn

Because learning is not always easy, between notification and lack of concentration, we think it is important to go back to the basics: learning to learn. This is the theme of the new skill added to the Coorpacademy catalog. Rediscover the mechanism of your brain, to better understand the way it processes information and thus learn more efficiently. As we evolve in an uncertain world, learning to learn is essential to develop your adaptability and respond rapidly to the transformations of your profession. Become a learning ace with this new skill available on Coorpacademy!

By enriching the Coorpacademy catalog with new skills, we enable companies to promote their transformation(s). To ensure a successful digital transition, discover the 3 main skills to acquire:

Learn by listening : Cybercafé, the first podcast to learn everything about the Web

Coorpacademy, an EdTech startup offering smart learning experience platforms to one million learners, is launching Cybercafé: a series of 5-minute podcasts in 5 episodes to learn about the great history of the Web.

With over 135,000 educational podcasts produced in 2020, the audio format is booming. The productions are increasing, the audience is growing with 90 million listenings per month and the engagement rates are very good: 93% of people listen to podcasts in their entirety or almost.

Coorpacademy innovates by launching an audiolearning series of 5 episodes to better understand the Web and thus develop digital skills, to accompany the training of employees and more broadly, the digital transformation of companies.

Cybercafé is a discussion between Yann and Lya. Every morning, Yann takes his coffee with his virtual assistant. He shares his questions about the vast world of the Web while Lya corrects him, informs him, and gives him information on a multitude of digital-related topics.

With this format, which is conducive to storytelling and arouses emotions, Coorpacademy relies on the audio to allow the learner to be truly immersed in the world of Yann and Lya, as Laurence Mijoin-Duroche, in charge of pedagogical innovation at Coorpacademy explains:

“Digital culture is a strong axis of Coorpacademy’s catalog. This is why we chose audio to tell the story of the Web. The audio format offers us plenty of possibilities, especially with storytelling, sound design, and sound staging, which engages the learner and optimizes concentration.”

Because there are many ways of learning, Coorpacademy integrates audiolearning into its training catalog and optimizes its global digital learning offer. Learning through various learning formats allows better retention of information, as well as a more diverse content proposal, to adapt to all uses. The audio format is accessible everywhere, practical for the learner, and offers a multitude of creation tools, to always better accompany training in companies.

Training in the midst of transformation: a look at the impact of the pandemic

This Wednesday, June 16 at 6:30 pm, Jean-Marc Tassetto, co-founder and CEO of Coorpacademy, will participate in a roundtable discussion on the impact of the pandemic on the EdTech sector in France. During this round table, co-founders and investors of leading companies in this sector will discuss their vision of the future of education following this pandemic that has disrupted the uses. In anticipation of these discussions, discover this article that set the context of post-COVID digital learning.

Educational technologies, commonly referred to as EdTech, represent digital solutions that are revolutionizing the learning experience, through mobile apps, learning platforms, and other mediums. 2020 has redrawn the contours of learning, adapting to the exceptional measures that have been imposed on us, and thus shaping new uses. To say that learning is changing is an understatement. It is transforming.

We have been told for months: stay home! And for the better good. However, this measure raises a major question: how can we ensure that continuous learning is maintained if we are individually isolated at home? To address this issue, we had to implement solutions and take full advantage of the tools at our disposal. Thus, the use of new technologies, which was already obvious for some, has become indispensable for all. Both for educational institutions, which had to organize themselves to guarantee access to education and for companies, which had to reorganize teams and introduce remote working measures, while ensuring remote team training. The use of digital technology has therefore become vital to meet the challenges created by the pandemic and to ensure the smooth running of organizations despite the constraints of this unprecedented context.

The first lockdown allowed the French population to integrate the new digital uses more permanently and intensely. For institutions, distance learning has been adopted very quickly and for companies, between remote working and online training, the use of digital technology has made considerable progress. We are moving towards an era of digitalized training, where digital tools feed the learner’s experience and reinforce the pedagogy. Farewell to the traditional face-to-face courses and the dusty e-learning: they are reinvented to offer a digital learning experience that better adapts to individuals, their learning styles, their educational content consumption habits, and their life rhythms.

To constantly improve the learning experience and adapt to the world in which we evolve, it is necessary to rethink educational formats and ways of delivering information. It is certain that our attention spans are impacted by the use of digital technology, especially with social networks and the culture of immediacy. Accelerated by the COVID19, the use of digital has increased, shaping new habits, which are the beginnings that will shape the of the future of education and training in companies.

The Battle of Premium Content in the Learning and Training Industry

On April 23rd, Coorpacademy co-founder Arnauld Mitre was invited by Fabernovel to their MultipLX, the Learning Expedition from your desk, to talk about the key stakes in corporate digital learning.

Video is in French but you can watch it with English subtitles.

Amongst these stakes, content. One of the biggest issues in the learning and training industry – which is a content industry – is to think that 2 contents with the same name are worth the same. Thinking that I would be able to learn how to become a better manager for example, on any support, with any course called ‘How to become a better manager?’ There are no other industries where this is the case.

You wouldn’t say, for example: “I’m going to watch a detective series”. But rather: “Would I watch Columbo?” or “Would I watch Money Heist?” These are not the same profiles; one chooses a particular content.

The first battle for the learning industry is the battle of content, the one you can find nowhere else, the battle of the best content.

In 1996 Bill Gates was already saying: “Content is King.” And it is even more true in the learning industry!

What about you? Are you more Columbo or more Money Heist?

At the EPFL Innovation Park, the interview of Jean-Marc Tassetto, co-founder of Coorpacademy

Discover the video interview of Jean-Marc Tassetto, co-founder of Coorpacademy, on the advantages of being an EdTech startup at the EPFL (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology) Innovation Park in Lausanne, Switzerland.

Jean-Marc Tassetto, co-founder of Coorpacademy : “Coorpacademy is what we call an EdTech start-up company, which brings together Education and Technology. We have a platform dedicated to Corporate Digital Learning. Coorpacademy’s Unique Selling Proposition is to deliver highly individualized learning experiences online. You and I being very different in the way we learn, we will be delivering through the same platform very specific content and instructional design pending to our upskilling and reskilling needs.

Being located at the EPFL Innovation Park, for us, really made a difference. First of all, we’ve created Coorpacademy on the campus and decided to do so because we are close and connected to two laboratories led by Professor Pierre Dillenbourg, working on Learning as a Science. All this is related to artificial intelligence applied to education, deep learning and machine learning applied to education. So, for us, it is a key differentiator when it comes to delivering top-notch solutions to large multinational companies like we are doing; it is really great to be backed up by top-notch scientists.”

We are proud at Coorpacademy to be part of such a thriving environment. Switzerland is a great place for innovation, and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology is one of Switzerland’s most prestigious schools, at the forefront of learning sciences and innovation applied to learning processes. This was, from the day Coorpacademy was created in 2013, the best possible place for us to thrive.

In 2019, figures show that Switzerland is still topping most global rankings on innovation. According to the World Economic Forum, Switzerland is the 3rd most innovative country in the world, only after Singapore (1st) and Luxembourg (2nd).

The article states: “The Center for Global Innovation Studies at Toyo University recently published a Global Innovation Index, ranking the innovation performance of each country. The index was created by selecting and integrating a total of 58 indexes for comparison from five main fields: international cooperation, market trends, technological innovation, resourcefulness and relevant policies.”

Switzerland is also the 1st country of world when it comes to government funding for university research as share of GDP, with 0,76% of total GDP being allocated to university research. It is quite impressive for the 5th most competitive economy in the world!

Coorpacademy has its roots at the heart of innovation and research in learning sciences, and we are proud to make the most of this thriving environment to deliver top individualized learning experiences to our customers.

3 Ways Former Google CEO Is Reengaging Workers To Be More Productive – Forbes

To be discovered in Forbes, 3 ways Jean-Marc Tassetto, co-founder of Coorpacademy, is reengaging workers to be more productive.

Following the keynote at Gartner ReimagineHR London 2019 where Stéphan Bruno, CHRO of the Principality of Monaco, and Jean-Marc Tassetto presented the partnership with Coorpacademy to retrain 3,600 of Monaco’s public sector employees, Forbes contributor Heidi Lynne Kurter published an article on 3 ways companies can shake up corporate learning to increase productivity, talent retention and engagement with the help of innovative employee learning experiences.

3 Ways Former Google CEO Is Reengaging Workers To Be More Productive

[…]

The World Economic Organization recently announced by 2022, 75 million jobs will be destroyed and 133 million will be created as a result of new technologies. Consequently, companies are likely to face resistance in retraining tenured employees who have a limited skill set. Therefore, it’s crucial for them to start preparing employees for change by reopening their appetite for learning and decreasing their fear of the future.

Stéphan Bruno, director of human resources for Principality of Monaco, is determined to be at the forefront of the digital revolution. At the London Gartner ReImagine HR conference, Bruno announced the governments partnership with CoorpAcademy to retrain 3,600 of Monaco’s public sector employees. Known as the Netflix of knowledge and training, CoorpAcademy is an innovative digital e-learning platform that uses gamification to make training interactive and appealing.

[…]

Creating A More Learner-Centric Approach

CoorpAcademy co-founder and former head of Google France, Jean-Marc Tassetto, aims to creatively disrupt traditional e-learning experiences. Instead of imitating Coursera and Udemy by seeking out professors from top universities, Tassetto felt it would be more effective to partner with key industry leaders across the globe. These leaders are entrusted with developing and teaching specific courses relevant to their expertise. For example, Understand Blockchain Technology is a course created by IBM and taught by its current employees.

[…]

Reducing Fear Of The Future

[…]

Both Bruno and Tassetto understand by putting employees in charge of their learning, with guidance from their manager, non-digital natives can increase their digital maturity at a pace that feels comfortable for them. Users also have the opportunity to take advantage of additional content to further develop their skill set. Some courses available to them are feminine leadership, stress management and design thinking, to name a few.

Engaging Through Micro-Learning

A study by Microsoft states on average an individuals attention span lasts 8-seconds. If companies and e-learning platforms want to keep users engaged and on track to complete the course, they need to focus more on mini modules that are short enough to keep their attention. Tassetto states the most successful micro-learning modules typically range from 5-12 minutes in length. Anything longer risks losing the attention of its users. Their micro-learning modules are a healthy mix of asking questions, playing games and keeping players engaged until the end with short form videos.

With clients such as L’oreal, IBM, Nestle and BNP Paribas, the EdTech startup has found great success in their unique and innovate learning approach. By placing learners first, employees are empowered to develop their skills for who they want to be instead of who they are now. Bruno was surprised to see employees at every level of the government sector from gardeners to firemen positively interacting with the platform.”
