Mindflash: Track your training and compliance
Pros
- You are able to create groups for your employees so that you can quickly assign groups to training courses rather than grabbing employees individually each time.
- You can import training packs in several formats and create custom quizzes either throughout the training or at the end with multiple question formats.
Cons
- You can add surveys to your courses as well, but getting the survey data back out is not as straight forward as it should be. You have to click around to find it because just printing the results in the course does not automatically include the survey results.
- You have no control over the passwords. Yes, the user is able to click a "Forgot Password" link on the login page, but we have had many problems with the user not receiving the email, so then they are stuck, and we have no other alternative to help them get into the system.
Return on Investment
- The biggest ROI is being able to provide certificates for safety training. Prior to using Mindflash, this was a very cumbersome process to track employee training status in general, and for specific areas. The previous process didn't cost us anything, but it was admittedly very flawed and inconsistent.
- Since we already have Mindflash available to satisfy necessary internal training, we end up using it more and more for many items that we would have typically just sent in emails for employee consumption. Mindflash allows us to see who actually went through the material, so even in cases where it isn't necessarily "training," we have put these items into Mindflash to help with keeping track of compliance items.
