Here, in izi LMS team, we’re doing our best to create features our customers need the most when it comes to training courses in Confluence. Today we are pleased to present a new report in izi – LMS for Confluence that will be extremely valuable in the analysis of your organization’s learning process.

With Course Results Report, you’re able to generate reports based on courses you have in Confluence. It’s a macro that you can insert into any page and get a report for all or several courses, participants, and their progress. Course Results Report saves you time you could spend collecting data from each course individually.

View all courses’ results in one place

Earlier, an administrator could get a report for each separate course only. Now you can keep reports about all the courses on one page. To get a global report about all courses, all you have to do is to insert the Course Result Report macro to the page. As a result, you have a table that includes information about all courses and employees that were enrolled in them.

This report can save you time in several cases. For instance, when your Learning & Development team wants to track all courses and their participants in one place. Or when your management needs a global report on all courses taken by employees this year.

Enjoy a flexible report configuration

With the help of the macro, you can include only those courses and participants you need for your report. A report can be based on a user group and their courses. Also, you can create a report for one single participant and include all or several courses passed by this person. It is convenient, especially if your supervisor wants to know how learning goes for each of the employees in their team.

Share course results with your colleagues

A ready-made report can be shared just like any other Confluence content. Imagine how handy it can be when you need to share particular course results with a supervisor or team lead.

Refine your training courses in Confluence

Moreover, you can power up your reports with the help of the Table Filter and Charts for Confluence app. In a bundle with izi – LMS for Confluence this app takes your course analytics to a new level.

You can easily filter report results when you need to find all the participants who only started the course. It comes in handy when you have a lot of course participants. You can also use reports to build insightful graphs to rapidly get an overview of your colleagues’ progress.

    Create Courses to Organize Training in Confluence Cloud

    September 12, 2019
    #Confluence#Learning Management
    4 min

    It’s a pleasure to announce that we released a new Cloud version of izi LMS app that allows you to create courses in Confluence Cloud. Using pages that you already have in your spaces, creating new educational content and seasoning all that with tests (quizzes), you can build courses for onboarding, employee and customer education, and any other kind of learning.

    Now your team can use Confluence as an LMS (the same platform that they use every day) with no need to switch to an external learning management system. It saves time, seamlessly integrates education into daily tasks, lets you make use of the artifacts and assets that are stored on Confluence pages.

    Create, enroll, track completion – all in a few clicks

    Creating a new course is as simple as adding a page in a space. You just give it a name and find yourself on a course administration page. Sections and modules help you structure your content and divide it into pieces.

    You can assign a course by enrolling participants. Just type their emails and the app will send them invites with unique course links. You can even engage anonymous participants. This means it is possible to enroll customers and partners, who have no account in your Confluence.

    Course reports show you the progress of each person and how much time it took for them to complete a course.

    Easy to follow and resume

    While taking a course, participants browse one module at a time and see what’s to come on a sidebar. They can leave and pause their study at any time. When a participant gets back, he or she is taken to the same place where they left off. Enrollees can return to the previous modules and revise what they learned during the past days and weeks.

    Try creating courses in Confluence

    Learning and development can be organized right in Confluence with the help of izi LMS app. Using your collaboration system for managing courses for new hires, employees and clients will let you save resources (no need to purchase an LMS and learn how to use it), avoid switching between applications and have learning content inside your knowledge base.

    Try building courses – it’s free for 30 days.

      How to Set Up Product Knowledge Training in Confluence

      August 13, 2019
      #Confluence#Learning Management
      9 min

      Salespeople must be fluent when it comes to the products they sell. Customers tend to purchase products and services from companies whose representatives can confidently speak about what they offer. If a company doesn’t pay attention to team product knowledge training, it may result in loss of customers and reputation.

      Product knowledge training can help organizations boost the overall performance of their sales team. However, creating successful knowledge training is a challenging task. It is essential to provide your team with the tools they need to successfully sell the full suite of services.

      Use Confluence for product knowledge training

      It is always a good idea to use solutions your team is already familiar with not to make the training process too tedious and work-consuming.

      Just imagine that you need to pull employees from their daily responsibilities to teach them how to use a new learning management system (LMS).

      If your team is already using Confluence for team collaboration, you will enjoy a smooth process of teaching your sales professionals with the help of izi – LMS for Confluence. This app helps teams worldwide create courses right in Confluence and deliver top-notch online training.

      Provide training in bite-sized modules

      To ensure that your sales team retains product knowledge, you can break down the course content into manageable chunks. You can divide all the information about the product into modules building sales knowledge logically. This way, your salespeople can consume easy-to-digest information that fits in their normal workflow.

      When it comes to product knowledge training, you can provide course participants with the product overview, your value proposition, the competition, and how you win.

      Since the modules are brief, the information is more likely to be retained and applied. For instance, you can familiarize your sales team with client needs, improve objection handling, and motivate them with the most exciting success stories.

      Engage sales team through diverse training content

      To educate employees on your goods, you can create product videos that explain and visually exhibit product benefits. Demonstrate how customers solve their problems with the help of your product.

      add videos to training courses

      Moreover, you can add engaging quizzes to the course to help course participants capture information on the fly.

      add quizzes to training courses in Confluence

      Videos, tutorials, and quizzes will encourage your team to learn more about your product. Above all, a perfectly designed interactive training course can act as a catalyst in improving sales success.

      Build an easy-to-use knowledge base

      To quench the thirst for knowledge of your employees, you can create multiple courses on various topics. However, when it comes to organizing training content, you need to efficiently structure all existing courses. In this case, you will help your users find what they are looking for without getting sidetracked. 

      izi – LMS for Confluence adds the Learning tab to the header menu of Confluence, helping users swiftly enter the knowledge base.

      In other words, everyone can use the Learning catalog when they need a refresher or want to continue with their courses.

      Collaborate on training materials with your team

      Confluence allows people to collaborate on content. This also applies to courses because course administrators can easily discuss the structure or materials they want to include.

      They can point out if the course lacks some content and discuss the outdated content right in the comments of a course administration page.

      Track progress to understand if training works

      It is essential to make sure that course participants have digested the material and arranged it. Course administrators can track the progress of all the people involved in the course.

      track course completion

      Checking the results, they can offer additional training to the people who have some pitfalls during education. Finally, course administrators can export course reports on the fly.

      Create fluent product knowledge training

      Product knowledge is one of the sales skills crucial if you want to improve sales performance. It’s important to make sure that your sales professionals can convert prospects into customers and provide them with impeccable client service.

      Salespeople are snowed under with endless documentation, product spec sheets, brochures, YouTube videos, and more. So it is essential to provide them with the information they need. And here comes well-structured product knowledge training.

        How Bright Solutions GmbH Runs Internal Learning in Confluence with izi LMS app

        May 24, 2019
        #Case Study#Learning Management#Confluence
        4 min

        This plugin is a great tool to organize and measure all our internal learning. It helped us to identify quickly based on quiz results which people need additional education. Thanks a lot for this great tool and your support!

        Bright Solutions GmbH

        Our client Bright Solutions GmbH is a German full-service digital agency offering hybrid teams (mix of local and virtual teams) for various projects including Web, App, Cloud, Drupal and Java development. Their Project Operations team uses izi LMS – for Confluence for internal learning – onboarding of new people, teaching new processes and knowledge sharing.

        Evaluate Readiness after Onboarding

        The company prepared quizzes for new hires, which helps to determine how successful their onboarding was. Quiz questions cover all the important areas of a new job and processes screening the level of employee readiness. With quiz results, a manager decides if a person can start their work or needs further education.

        Check Understanding of New Processes

        When the team changes major processes, they create learning material and quizzes for all the engaged employees to study and complete. It is important to make sure everyone is aware of a change and is all set for adjustments. Just like with onboarding, quiz results are used for tracking who passed (demonstrated ability to operate in a new way) and failed (needs to go through learning material one more time with focus on certain aspects).

        Sharing Knowledge and Experience with Colleagues

        Knowledge sharing is another facet of internal learning in Bright Solutions GmbH. When team members discover new things or have individual learning, the team creates survey-like quizzes to find out if others already faced similar problems. If so, they work out some learning materials and make them available for everyone.

        This approach lets an employee find out if their experience and findings are of interest before actually spending time on creating content for knowledge transfer.

        Try LMS in Confluence for Your Internal Learning

        Bright Solutions GmbH uses an app to add learning management functions into Confluence. The team creates learning material and quizzes in Confluence to be certain new people successfully complete their onboarding, educate employees about changes in key processes, and carry out an exchange of team and individual knowledge.

        The company is about to extend their usage of the app and start creating courses for these use cases and more.

          Self-Directed Employee Education in Confluence That Really Works

          November 29, 2018
          #Confluence#Learning Management
          8 min

          The greatest products and services require the best team behind them, otherwise, it can be difficult to operate the business successfully. But even if you’ve hired the best, it is important to maintain the level of their skills paying attention to their training, development, and motivation. Employees that are constantly learning and improving expertise in their profession can stay at the top of the game.

          Traditionally, most workplaces carry out the majority of learning and development through various training courses, workshops, and seminars with a teacher or instructor. These days, less traditional methods of knowledge sharing gain in popularity – we are talking about self-directed education (SDE) when people develop their skills at their own pace.

          Of course, self-directed education can be challenging, but at the same time, it allows employees to choose the learning style that best suits them on an individual level and helps them plan their time properly. SDE gives employees the freedom to choose the way they want to study when it fits in their working schedule:

          • They can choose to study in a quiet room or in a shared space.
          • They can choose to work with a partner or independently.
          • They can choose what they want to learn searching for the appropriate training course.

          Encouraging SDE in Confluence gives your employees the opportunity to take courses at their convenience building the education program themselves with the help of the courses a learning administrator created in Confluence. This freedom of choice allows employees to maintain a balance between feeling comfortable and trying new things.

          In this blog post, you will discover how to build the foundation of successful self-directed employee training that will provide your team with lasting results. We will show you how to turn your Confluence into an LMS where you can store courses and quizzes to train or educate your team, employees, or customers with the help of izi – LMS for Confluence.

          Turning Confluence into Learning Management System

          Previously, we told you how to create education courses right in Confluence. As a learning administrator, you can create a training course using videos, GIFs, images, PDF files, and more to diversify the content. The app allows you to populate courses with useful training modules and tricky quizzes. You can even reuse materials from other courses or take advantage of your existing Confluence pages’ content.

          So once you have created a new training course, you need to fine-tune it and make it accessible for your team. Now you can easily categorize your course, upload the featured image that illustrates the main idea of the course, briefly describe it, and add it to the Learning catalog (available in the Confluence header menu).

          turn Confluence into learning management system

          Now users can access the Learning catalog with one click, browse through all the categories, and self-enroll into the course they want to take.

          Self-Directed Employee Education in Confluence

          Moreover, you can track all the courses you were enrolled in. You can access the list of your active courses by clicking your profile picture and choosing the Courses tab. This way you can continue from where you stopped last time or review the information you already know.

          Course administrators can choose who can see a new course in the Learning catalog: no one (by default), anyone, only logged-in users, or selected Confluence user groups.

          LMS in Confluence

          A learning administrator can easily monitor and evaluate the results of all the participants:

          • check their progress looking through the modules they completed
          • view their answers to the embedded quizzes quickly switching between users
          • create custom course reports based on their needs

          Create your first training course in Confluence

          Remember that your employees are an investment in your business. So it is important to support them and help them enhance their skills.

          Try izi – LMS for Confluence for free to keep your team up to date with relevant skills and offer new hires a smooth and simple onboarding. This app will help you contribute to building a learning culture in your company providing your employees with limitless training opportunities right in Confluence.

            The ‘izi – LMS for Confluence’ App Came to Cloud

            August 9, 2018
            #Learning Management
            3 min

            We brought one more of our apps for Atlassian Confluence into Cloud – izi – LMS for Confluence.

            The Server version of the Confluence LMS app has been available on the Atlassian Marketplace for almost three years. It is now a solid product that turns Confluence into a learning management system. The Server app allows you to create tests for checking knowledge, skills, and understanding; as well as training courses for employee and customer education.

            We’ve recently released the Cloud version of izi – LMS app. Now Cloud users can also extend their Confluence to organize education and learning inside the wiki.

            With izi – LMS for Confluence you can:

            • create courses and assign them both to Confluence and non-Confluence users
            • create stand-alone quizzes or make them a part of your course
            • access the Learning portal – one-stop-shop for training management
            • track participants’ progress over the training and export the results to CSV

            Compared to the Server edition, the Cloud app has limited functionality. However, we are doing our best to make the Cloud version of our app even more powerful, taking into account the feedback from our customers.
