We asked Sandler Training CEO and President David Mattson to share some thoughts about the new partnership.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q. Why Grovo?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A. At Sandler, success and changing lives is our goal \u2013 and our mission. Sandler trains over 30,000 people each year, and as we started evaluating the feedback from our clients, we realized that every one of those people would, ideally, prefer to consume our content in their own way, on their own schedule. So we really have seen a growing demand for short, concise, self-paced lessons. Sandler has recently launched a two-year initiative to enhance their training and reinforcement content, online, so that it\u2019s available 24\/7, in any format.&nbsp; microlearning is part of that strategy, and Grovo is well known as the global leader in microlearning, so they were a natural choice for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q. What is Microlearning?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A. Grovo defines it as follows: \u201c<em>A modern and effective approach to workplace learning that delivers targeted lessons to employees in their workflows \u2026 so they can naturally learn new behaviors over time.\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;This kind of learning is precisely targeted to a single skill, which means that as an employee, whenever I\u2019m taking advantage of a microlearning resource, I am focusing on only one new skill at a time, at my own pace \u2026 so it\u2019s easier for me to move beyond my comfort zone and turn that new skill I\u2019ve taken on into a repeatable behavior, into muscle memory.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q. What else distinguishes Grovo\u2019s approach?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two big things. First, microlearning leverages the workplace as a learning environment. So in this platform, we\u2019re not taking the employee out of the job they do and telling them, \u201c<em>Hey, it\u2019s time to change gears for a day, so you can do this thing called \u2018learning\u2019 instead of working<\/em>.\u201d We\u2019re making the work environment itself an enriched learning environment where people are learning to succeed both personally and professionally, which is a major theme at Sandler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And second, the lessons are highly flexible. The material is extremely easy to access, it\u2019s easy to schedule, it\u2019s easy to assimilate, and it\u2019s easy to customize to your own skill level \u2026 all of which is what learners, and particularly younger learners, tell us they are looking for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q. So is this about reaching new audiences?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, but it is also about giving our current clients some powerful tools for learning and reinforcement. Certainly, though, one of the big reasons we are so excited about partnering with Grovo is the opportunity to engage powerfully with a whole generation of people who are actively seeking shorter, more focused online learning resources. Now, with both of those groups in mind, we will be creating and distributing a whole suite of microlearning resources that provide today\u2019s teams with critical learning and reinforcement assets \u2013 not just for the Sandler content, but also in a huge range of other areas from Grovo\u2019s content library, in areas such as compliance, diversity, and project management. And all of it is delivered in a concise, laser-focused, multi-media, online format that is relevant, easy to master, easy to come back to, and immediately applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Q.&nbsp;<\/strong><strong>So where can we get a look at Sandler\u2019s content using the microlearning approach?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Visit&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sandler.com\/lesson-rethink-the-sales-profession\"><strong><em>https:\/\/www.sandler.com\/lesson-rethink-the-sales-profession<\/em><\/strong><\/a><strong><em>&nbsp;&#8230; and please let us know what you think by emailing us at info@sandler.com.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sandler Training recently chose online learning leader Grovo as its exclusive partner to develop and deliver Microlearning modules based on Sandler&#8217;s renowned sales, management, and leadership training.
