On Demand Workshops
As an Org Plus Plan subscriber, you have unlimited access to the On Demand library of pre-recorded training workshops via our e-Learning Hub. This allows you to easily learn at your own pace, with practical examples, pre-recorded videos and exercises to test what you have learnt. Questions can be posed to trainers during and after the video and if you manage a team, you can even track the progress of each individual within your team.
For non-subscribers and all other plan subscribers, access can be purchased separately.
