FEATURES & BENEFITS
Ntiva’s TaaS is an e-learning platform that provides users with cloud-based training courses across a variety of Microsoft Office 365 applications as well as other 3rd party solutions such as Google G-Suite, Adobe and more. It helps make new users productive faster with its innovative teaching and evaluation tools.
It is common knowledge that people do not like change and that is no truer than when a business implements a new IT system. For months, employees can be left frustrated and confused, which can ultimately result in disengagement – all due to a lack of proper guidance and training. Your IT investment ends up becoming a waste of money, time, and effort.
However, incorporating training as part of your IT roll-out is an easy way to address any difficulties that employees might have in adapting to a new solution. There are several ways we can work with you to ensure that employees are prepared.
Training does not have to stop there. With Microsoft 365, updates happen automatically and regularly so it is good to regularly train employees, so they are aware of any new improvements.
Giving employees the option to dip into online training courses, quizzes, and videos, at their own pace ensures that they maintain their technical knowledge across a variety of business software solutions and topics, such as security. Plus, you can monitor and assign training courses to particular individuals and departments, as well as new hires, so that no one falls behind.
