Our Learn365 Implementation Services
Throughout the setup and implementation of Learn365, the assigned Larmer Brown team provide continuous support. This could comprise on-request meetings or weekly update reports aligned to the client’s priorities and timelines. Additional follow-on services usually include upskilling and support of the client’s team members, including hands-on practice/consolidation sessions.
Installation
Our Technical Team work with your MS Admin to plan a UK or European customised installation and configuration. The plan reflects your requirements, internal skills, experience, timelines and budget. Installation of Learn365 takes 5-6 hours, plus pre-calls to discuss and agree security and planning
Technical Support
Unlimited technical support is included in the Learn365 subscription. We assign a UK-based support specialist who has access to the vendor’s support team if required
Training Academy
The Learn365 subscription includes access to a Customer Academy. This learning portal offers a range of training to help you get started with Learn365 and enhance your knowledge and skills, including user guides, webinars and eLearning courses, which can be assigned based on role
Discovery Workshop
Our 15-hour Discovery Workshop is delivered in 2-hour virtual sessions. A customised plan is agreed following a review of the agenda with key project personnel. Commencing with an in-depth demo of the functionality, process-led best practices are discussed and agreed. Our Discovery Report provides a detailed record of the workshop
Premier Support
Once your Learn365 platform is live, we recommend investment in a Premier Support Agreement whereby named client representatives can obtain non-technical support from named Larmer Brown Team members on any subject, including training, project management best practices and development related services.
Account Management – as a Larmer Brown client, your Learn365 project will be supported by named members of our team, including a consultant, a technical specialist and an account director.
Monthly Meetings – Following Go Live, your Larmer Brown Account Director will propose monthly meetings. During these monthly catch-up calls, the Larmer Brown Team review any support tickets, answer general queries and provide new feature demonstrations.
Learner Experience
Learners can access their learning via the route of their choice. The company-branded training portal is accessed via their browser and can be customised to include leaderboards, skill radar charts and targeted courses (for example by role or department). MS Teams provides learners with direct access to 1-2-1 or group learning, without disrupting their daily workflow. The Learn365 mobile app can be used to consume learning offline and then upload when online.
Mandatory and Optional Learning – However the user accesses their learning, they will be presented with mandatory and optional courses. Irrespective of their access route, or indeed if a combination of routes are necessary, Learn365 bookmarks the learner’s progress for when they are able to continue.
Compliance – Learners receive Teams and Outlook notifications for training and compliance flows such as re-certification, without having to switch between apps. The frequency of these reminders can be customised and notifications can be escalated to line managers, reducing the risk of missed deadlines.
AI – Learners who wish to explore additional courses, perhaps aligned to a new skill, can utilise Learn365’s AI assistant, Orbie. Learners simply enter keywords from their training goal and are presented with relevant training from the course catalogue. Learners can also generate AI-powered learning paths based on their goals and skills, and aligned to their job role.
Learn365 Roles
The initial setup and ongoing maintenance of Learn365 is simplified via defined roles:
MS Admin – responsible for the installation and initial configuration of Learn365. They create the catalogues, assign the LMS admins and thereafter have no ongoing role in the product’s utilisation.
LMS Admin – with responsibility for tasks including branding, configuring the mobile application and optional Learn365 features, and assigning the catalogue administrators. The LMS admin is responsible for multiple global tasks.
Catalogue Admin – the Learn365 catalogue is the central hub where courses and training programmes are published and organised. Catalogue admins are responsible for configuring catalogue settings, creating and managing training, managing users and reporting.
Course Admin – manages the content, configuration, sessions and learners of courses assigned to them by a catalogue admin.
Line Manager – can track and manage their team’s learning by viewing team and individual progress, skills, certificates and assessments. They can enrol staff in training and approve or reject course or skill requests. Line managers also have access to dashboards and reports for their team’s training progress, skill gaps and proficiencies.
Proxy Manager – can temporarily take over many of a line manager’s responsibilities. This role can be granted to both internal and external users.
Instructor – can be assigned to manage course attendance and communication with their learners.
Supervisor – responsible for reviewing learners’ training assessments. This role can be granted to both internal and external users.
Build and Manage Learning Content
Catalogue can create self-paced or instructor-led learning content. Learning content can include quizzes, imported SCORM content packages, assessments and learning modules to provide a blended learning experience. Learning prerequisites can be applied to ensure content is consumed in a linear fashion.
Learn 365’s AI course builder can also be used to quickly generate course outlines, modules and summaries using effective prompts. AI-powered authoring tool, Content365 Authoring allows SMEs to quickly create interactive courses from scratch or existing documents using an intuitive course builder.
The course cloning feature in Learn365 allows administrators to quickly duplicate an existing course, including its structure, settings and content, to use as a template for creating new courses. The content and settings can then be adjusted without changing the original.
Learning Content Library
Learn365 integrates with trusted third-party content providers Go1, LinkedIn Learning, MS Viva Learning, Open Sesame and Udemy Business, providing instant access to the largest curated online learning libraries.
Flexible Automated Scheduling
Whether face-to-face or online, scheduling courses and the enrolment or learners is streamlined. Automatically generate Outlook invites and Teams calendar entries to keep training visible in learner’s workspace. Target enrolment as needed, such as by role, department or hire date, and determine enrolment flows. Apply waiting lists and auto track attendance using the Teams integration.
Skills Management
Identify, track and then close skill gaps by building a skills framework and equipping your learners with the competencies they need to succeed and progress in their careers. Offer targeted, personalised training to help your workforce grow, adapt and excel in their roles.
Tracking and Reporting
Monitor learner progress, track compliance and measure training effectiveness at an organisational level with powerful, real-time analytics. Learn365 offers tracking via 10 out-of-the-box reports. For more advanced analytics, use the ready-made Learn365 Power BI Starter Kit which includes ready-to-use dashboards to receive an overview of all data or drill down to a specific area.
The hierarchical reporting structure aligned to Entra AD ensures that line managers can track progress and skills at both an individual and team level.
Automated Administrative Tasks
The Automation Centre offers a suite of additional tools for
automating administrative tasks for Learn365 clients with a
Success Plus or Success Premium plan. Services include
scheduling training activity reports, advanced training enrolment rules, synchronising user fields for enhanced control over user information, importing and updating content in bulk.
E-Commerce
Learn365’s E-Commerce solution is an optional add-on that enables organisations to monetise their learning content by selling courses and training directly through the Learn365 platform. Designed for both internal and external audiences, this feature seamlessly integrates into your existing Microsoft 365-based LMS, allowing learners to register, purchase and access paid training using familiar Learn365 tools and interfaces.
Non Entra AD Learners – Flow365
If you have a requirement to provide training to external learners and then track and report their activity and achievements, you should consider Flow365. Training can be accessed without an MS Office license from any device and from within Learn365, where you manage learning and development for the rest of your organisation.
