Au\u00dferdem bedeutet die Tatsache, dass das System immer verf\u00fcgbar und von jedem Ger\u00e4t aus zug\u00e4nglich ist, dass die Mitarbeiter der GCA-Mitglieder in ihrem eigenen Tempo und zu einer f\u00fcr sie g\u00fcnstigen Zeit lernen k\u00f6nnen. Dies hat dazu beigetragen, dass eine gro\u00dfe Anzahl von Mitarbeitern der Gartencenter in den Pflichtmodulen geschult wird. Diese obligatorischen Schulungen werden auch viel schneller abgeschlossen, da die Mitarbeiter dank des Online-Lernprozesses nicht mehr darauf warten m\u00fcssen, dass die von einem Trainer geleiteten Kurse beginnen.   <\/p>\n<p>GROW wird als Abonnement f\u00fcr GCA-Mitglieder angeboten, was bedeutet, dass die Schulungskosten viel stabiler sind und ein hervorragendes Preis-Leistungs-Verh\u00e4ltnis bieten. Die Mitglieder haben drastische Einsparungen festgestellt, als sie von der traditionellen pers\u00f6nlichen Schulung weggegangen sind. Bei einigen sind die Schulungskosten seit der Einf\u00fchrung von GROW um 90 % gesunken. Gleichzeitig haben sich die betrieblichen Auswirkungen auf das Unternehmen erheblich verringert, da die Mitarbeiter nicht mehr so viel Zeit neben ihren eigentlichen Aufgaben verbringen.  <\/p>\n<p>Die leistungsstarken Berichtsfunktionen von Totara erm\u00f6glichen es den einzelnen Gartencentern, die Schulungsaufzeichnungen einfach zu \u00fcberwachen und Auffrischungsschulungen zu automatisieren, bevor sie f\u00e4llig sind. GCA-Mitglieder berichten, dass eine 100%ige Teilnahme der Mitarbeiter an Online-Schulungen keine Seltenheit ist. <\/p>\n<p><span data-sheets-root=\"1\" data-sheets-value=\"{\"1\":2,\"2\":\"Even before the system was launched, 10 members, representing 25 garden centres, agreed to join GROW based on the concept alone, reaffirming the need and desire to change the way that they trained their employees. GROW has increased membership numbers by 500% and now has 119 garden centres from 48 members and over 11,000 UK-based garden centre employees benefitting from Hubken\u2019s Totara Learn online training platform. \\n\\nThrough their system, the GCA is able to use the extensive knowledge of subject matter experts from within their membership to create bespoke content and produce courses that are specific to the various issues their industry and clients are facing. Using its member\u2019s expert knowledge, even the most complex of subjects can be brought to life with stimulating and engaging content that learners not only respond to, but most importantly, remember.\\n\\nAs their Totara site ensures that all the training is centralised, standardised and consistent, it allows easy and full access to an entire suite of courses that are easy for learners to digest. Moreover, the fact that the system is always available and accessible by any device, means the GCA\u2019s member\u2019s employees are able to learn at their own pace and at a time that is convenient for them. This has helped ensure that high numbers of garden centre staff are being trained in compulsory modules. This compulsory training is also being completed much more quickly as the online learning process means staff no longer have to wait for trainer-led courses to begin. \\n\\nGROW is provided as a subscription to GCA members, meaning training costs are much more stable and represent outstanding value for money. Members have seen dramatic savings as they\u2019ve moved away from traditional face-to-face training. Some have seen a 90% drop in the cost of training since the introduction of GROW, along with experiencing a significantly reduced operational impact on the business as staff no longer spend so much time away from their usual duties. \\n\\nTotara\u2019s powerful reporting functions allow individual garden centres to easily monitor training records and automate refresher training before it\u2019s due. GCA members report that it is not uncommon to have 100% employee participation in online training. \\nMoving forward, there is plenty of scope for future growth. As well as generating plenty of interest from their UK-based members, the GCA have also been in discussions with their Canadian counterparts to provide access to the LMS for their members \u2013 despite there being several Canada-based LMS providers!\\n\"}\" data-sheets-userformat=\"{\"2\":771,\"3\":{\"1\":0},\"4\":{\"1\":2,\"2\":16773836},\"11\":3,\"12\":0}\">Es gibt noch viel Spielraum f\u00fcr zuk\u00fcnftiges Wachstum.
