Cobry Create Online Training Courses With Create LMS.

Cobry helps organizations make the most of the latest cloud technology. The company focuses on providing G Suite as this product capitalizes most on the benefits of using cloud infrastructure as the basis of an IT system.

A project to move to G Suite usually involves technical aspects such as data migration but a very important element is also changed management.
For businesses with a headcount under 20, usually, a day or two of training will be enough to bring most of the team up-to-speed on the various tools. However, for larger organizations, more planning is needed to ensure good adoption and staff satisfaction with the system. Whilst face-to-face tuition is the most effective method of training, not all organizations have the budget to afford this for all their staff, especially for larger teams.

From experience deploying G Suite, Cobry identified the need for a training solution for organizations that don’t have the budget to provide face-to-face training en-masse.
An online learning platform was an obvious solution to meet this need so Cobry carried out some market research on various options available.

This research found that a few online training products were available for G Suite but were completely focused on servicing the end user.
This highlighted a gap in the market for a training platform that provides both learnings to the end user combined with reporting capabilities that would be useful for managers. These reporting capabilities would be of high value for managers as it would allow the control and supervision of learning with the ability to easily identify individuals that require more help to use G Suite confidently.

Cobry started to look for platforms that could be used to build an online learning resource for G Suite to meet this gap.
The company chose CreateLMS as they provided the infrastructure that allowed Cobry to create online training courses with a blend of text, video and quiz content that provides well-rounded learning for G Suite users. Moreover, the platform provided excellent real-time reporting and metrics – a key element missing from competitive offerings. An easy-to-use dashboard supplied managers with the tools they would need to effectively monitor their team’s learning.

As well as providing training to companies already using the technology, Cobry Academy has also proved to be a useful tool when moving organisations from more traditional IT systems to G Suite.
After courses are assigned to users, the manager’s dashboard can be used to identify team members that are struggling with the technology or resistant to change. These two groups of users usually cause the vast majority of change management issues during a project so being able to identify them easily allows pro-active actions to be taken to mitigate potential issues. Furthermore, it increases satisfaction and adoption rates across the whole user base – contributing to the overall success of the project.

Cobry’s experience of G Suite training paired with infrastructure provided by CreateLMS enabled the creation of Cobry Academy.
Cobry Academy is an online learning platform that provides businesses with a cost-effective way to train large teams on G Suite – whether in the process of moving or already using the product.
