Go1 is The Only 1!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Go1 for staff training. It is much better for our staff to do this online as they work different hours and shifts. This helps them do training in their own time.

  • Easy to find the courses
  • Easy to navigate through the training modules
  • Generates reports

Cons

  • So far, I have not seen anything that needs improvement

Return on Investment

  • Better trained employees
  • Employees are trained at a quicker rate due to the straight-to-the-point training
  • Employees have access to many courses, even ones that are not a requirement of the company - this leads to upskilling of employees
  • Easy to generate reports and see the progress of our employees

Go1 - Excellent LMS for SMEs

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Being a small company, the budget for development is restricted. Previously we focussed purely on mandatory compliance training only (health & safety, GDPR etc), sourcing each course as it was required. This was a very reactive approach, which was hard to manage and not very cost effective. We researched multiple LMS solutions to provide our staff with a more proactive approach to learning, and Go1 presented the best model by far! For the same average cost per employee of those ad hoc mandatory courses over the year, we could offer them with over 70,000 options for compliance professional and personal learning.
Because of the previous lack of development, we launched the content in phases. To start we launched a host of compliance courses (including a few of our own courses) and initiated an annual compliance learning cycle. As staff got used to the new approach to learning, we expanded to include selected professional development courses based on manager and employee requests - Excel skills, Tackling Difficult Conversations etc. With the fantastic adoption of learning across the company, we have now released the full suite of 70,000+ courses with a push for self-managed learning.

Pros

  • Variety of content
  • Great value for money
  • Excellent technical support
  • Great Account Manager
  • Annual and Quarterly Business Reviews
  • Easy to load own content

Cons

  • Schedule reoccurring annual training cycles
  • Retain completion information for repeat completion
  • More qualification/accreditation learning

Return on Investment

  • Better trained staff
  • More compliant staff
  • Better engaged staff
  • More enthusiastic attitudes in staff towards learning
  • Better evidence of compliance for internal and external audits

Go1 Review

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Go1 as our library for our online learning system. This supports internal training and has cut our costs considerably. I administer the system and pull classes that meet our diverse workforce. I appreciate the wide range of class offerings that are available. It was an invaluable tool during COVID shutdown. Our employees were able to maintain their educational requirements. It has been a great help.

Pros

  • I really like the Path options. We use these curated classes to support our supervisors.
  • I appreciate the wide variety of class options. It has been great to support our employees with work focused classes like Adobe and Microsoft, but also support their wellbeing with classes like mindfulness and meditation.
  • I am glad it is so easy and quick to find classes using the filters.
  • I like the quality of class content.
  • I appreciate how easy it is to add classes for our employees. I can do it in minutes.

Cons

  • The only thing I have come across is some of the content is a little dated, but I feel like they have been working to improve that a lot.

Return on Investment

  • Go1 has helped so much with accessing content quickly and easily. That has helped to improve our employee learning.
  • With the balance of work related classes and self development we have a lot of great options for our employees mental health.
  • We are able to quickly track and manage employee learning.
  • Our employees are safer because we can access health related topics (COVID, safety tips...).

Go1 Review

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Go1 as our external learning provider for various courses. At the moment, we are focussing on leadership training and change management, but in the past we have used Go1 for training on OKRs & CPD verified compliance training. We also use Go1 as our hub for ED&I training.

Pros

  • The huge library and variety of courses that can be accessed from multiple different providers in one place.
  • Our account manager from Go1 is always on hand to answer any questions we have or help with any tasks we have.
  • It is also very easy to pull reports from and monitor learning across the board.
  • I also love that I can pull the .skorm file for learning content from the site to reupload onto our internal site for compliance training.

Cons

  • Nothing
  • Nothing
  • Nothing

Return on Investment

  • We no longer need to source adhoc training which can be expensive for things like Lean 6 Sigma or Agile.
