[Webinar Recap] Learning Management Redefined: the Benefits of a Customer Training Platform

Is your legacy HR training system compromising your customer training efforts? Today, companies like Cisco, Snowflake and Zuora are investing in technologies that are purpose-built for customer education.

Why is customer training different?As Donna Weber put it, customer training is not about compliance, or getting “butts in seats” - it’s about driving business impact. For this reason, you need to have systems in place that enable you to measure how training affects product adoption, renewal rates, customer satisfaction, and other success metrics. 2. What is different about customer training? When building your training program, consider your audiences, content, and business impact. Remember, customers often have different roles. For instance, a company might have administrators, developers, and partners - all of whom would benefit from different learning pathways, or even separate training portals.

This means you need to develop a curriculum and go-to-market plan, market the product, sell it, deliver it, and ensure customers see the benefits.3. How is customer training different?

• Robust analytics
• Payments functionality
