Nothing is worse for utilization than a boring, static, and unengaging user experience. If you’re looking for creative but easy-to-implement ways to improve your learners’ overall engagement in your programs, this is the session for you! By improving their user experience through a dynamic homepage and content customization, Westmont Hospitality was able to change our employees’ mindset from less than enthused about training to total training program advocates. During this session, we’ll share all our secrets so you can have an engaging user experience, too.

Learning objectives:

  • Why you should customize your homepage
  • Ways to gain management buy-in for learning through your LMS
  • How to improve the overall user experience for your learners
