47% REDUCTION IN TRAINING INFRASTRUCTURE COSTS THROUGH CUSTOMISED VIRTUAL SANDBOX ENVIRONMENT
About
A Century old American Multinational Technology with operations in over 150+ countries has approached us for a Solution to complement their continuous learning efforts which were happening in a blended mode.
CHALLENGES
With a shift in learning efforts going completely online, the client’s new-hire training and continuous-learning efforts were happening in a blended mode. The program required the learners to practice both during instructor-led and self-paced learning. The challenges were
- To ensure intended outcomes of learning, standardized across geographies and various cohorts.
- To create an alternate technology environment for hands-on practice that is on par with their working environment.
RESOLUTION
After multiple insightful discussions with the client understanding their needs and challenges, we came up with a customized Virtual Labs solution which emulated an alternate technology environment enabling their learners to practice the skills learned as well as provide a platform for experimentation before working on real-time projects. The model also gave the client full control over the environment, usage, and allocation on demand.
STEP 1
- Virtual Tech Labs created allocating multiple customized environments across 92 technologies.
- Scalable usage model created with flexibility to upgrade and downgrade as they evolve
STEP 2
- Virtual Labs provisioned on demand and pre-configured based on the learning paths.
- The set up was hassle-free, quick, and ensured a smooth experience for the learner.
STEP 3
- Scaled up the configurations and technologies as the training needs evolved.
RESULT
- The client was able to deliver immersive hands-on learning experience to remote learners.
- Standardized the learning environment, thereby the outcomes leading to high impact training programs across geographies.
- Emulate the technologies they were working on – leading to a positive impact on their business as the employees could experiment and practice in an environment where they could fail and learn before working on real-time projects
- Easy to access and use virtual labs leading to increased practice activity along with learning.
- Pay per use Cloud Labs solution helped them deliver training in a cost-effective manner bringing down training infrastructure costs.
