New online learning platforms

Totara:

Launched in April 2023, Totara is a tool specially designed for large companies to allow synchronization with the human resources database. This integration offers important benefits for academic and professional development, for instance, by allowing the work team to receive training according to various parameters or by providing access to an overview of each professional’s individual progress. Developed in 15 languages.

goFLUENT:

New global solution for language learning, one of the priorities identified by the RGCU. By the end of 2023, the platform had nearly 1,500 active users who had completed more than 7,100 hours of training in 11 languages with 765 conversation classes. The platform features have been used to create an English-learning challenge that was rolled out at the head office, an initiative to be expanded to other business units in upcoming months.
