Overall Satisfaction with Skillsoft Percipio (Skillport)

We are using Skillsoft Books across the University and it is being used to support the professional development of our employees.
  • It provides most books in audio and eBook options.
  • You can download books for reading offline.
  • There are thousands of books available and they are constantly adding to their list.
  • Increase the number of books offered in both eBook and audiobook
  • Increase the catalog by creating a section for online articles not just books
  • We have increased our usage by 300% and helped our employees develop new skills.
  • We have developed an online training program for new managers, those seeking certifications (SHRM, PMP and others) and looking to expand our programs even more.
  • There are so many books (thousands), it can be overwhelming for our employees.
We have looked at other vendors and none provide the well-known books at a reasonable cost to the institution.
