eSpok - Company blog

The German training industry is at a low point at the moment. One company after another is cutting its training budget. Training and education is the lowest priority right now.

Does it make sense to just stop all training activities for months? Can training costs be reduced in the long term by taking a 6 month break? Wasn’t the whole economic crisis the result of short term thinking and the short term maximizing of profits?

One of my key lessons out of the crisis is the importance of long term thinking. I do believe that education and training are one of the core components of success for individuals and for society. Contributing to making education as efficient and available as possible is a great driving force and motivation every day.

Two weeks ago we launched our new Learning Management System (LMS) for companies. The eSpok LMS will provide a virtual workplace for every employee. Different e-learning tools as well as access to all kinds of training material are available at any moment. Progress tracking and cooperation tools will help to follow and optimize the individual’s learning progress.

We strongly hope that our Learning platform will help companies to be able to offer training and education to every employee at any moment.
