...Every active mind needs to be fed
SkillSnax are Bite-sized learning SkillSnax are 90-minute bite-sized workshops aimed at all employees and managers. Our research has shown that people don’t have time to attend long training courses due to increased workload and customer needs. Therefore, short bite-sized learning Snax, address the need for employee development; and the work gets done too! SkillSnax are ergonomically sound Research on the brain has shown that most people can retain up to 90-minutes of information before the brain needs to rest. SkillSnax address this physiological need by providing the opportunity to develop skills in just 90 minutes! As a result, employees are more likely to apply the learning immediately, thereby making SkillSnax a sound investment. No wonder bite-sized learning is in great demand! They deliver key learning in 90 minutes then you’re gone; no fuss, no hassle, no waste - and cost effective too! SkillSnax are flexible People with busy schedules can dip in and out of SkillSnax in ways that suit their diary, their wallet and their learning needs. They can be tailored to run face to face, webinar or delivered in other medium too. They can also be ‘bundled’ into a suite of themed workshops. For example, one client bundled a series of SkillSnax under the theme of ‘Dignity at Work Week’ and employees could attend any of the sessions throughout the week. SkillSnax are a flexible approach to learning and development. SkillSnax are win-win Employers achieve cost effective and productivity friendly learning whilst keeping the employee promise of continuous personal development. Employees win too by attending practical and useful sessions that can easily be applied into their work and life; and they get the day job done too!
...Every active mind should be fed on SkillSnax
Customer Case StudyHere is a reference from one client environment where SkillSnax had to be delivered on the internet. With a global staff profile, they needed to know that we could deliver simultaneous programmes in Hong Kong, California, Texas, England and Ireland! A cost effective solution was sought and found in SkillSnax. Every Tuesday evening between 6:30pm and 11:30pm, we delivered 2 SkillSnax. Each week was different and we covered topics like; Managing Workload, Learning to Say "No", Managing Time and Dealing with Culture Difference. The programme was a success! Here is what the HR Director had to say... "We ran a series of internet based e-SkillSnax for our employees on the west coast of America, The Far East and Europe. The Worklife Company were so flexible about when we delivered the training and we therefore could run the sessions from, for example, 10:30 to 12:00 PST (which meant it was 18:30 to 20:00 in the UK). We ran 2 sessions in a day for 2 months, they worked really well for our business as we could not afford to take people out of their customer facing roles or have them travel to one central venue for training.” HR Director, Major Corporate The second is from a well-known food manufacturer who we have worked with for some time. Here is what their HR Director had to say about our face-to-face SkillSnax "This year, as part of Active Health we have launched a healthy selection of learning snacks as a pilot for managers called SkillSnax. They are a series of 90-minute flexible training & development sessions and for now we are focusing on 2 types of Snax just to gauge the take up and success, these are: Improving Nutrition and Managing Stress. We have so far run about half of the number scheduled and they are receiving rave reviews! The SkillSnax are being delivered at times to suit busy diaries and schedules and that means that this bite-sized learning does not take a whole day out of the office. Managers and team leaders are reporting that they are making major changes to their diets, exercise and stress management regimes as a result of these SkillSnax sessions."
