Ion Learning

Pros

From the start it looks like a strong partner in helping BluPeak invest in our people and encourage employees to use inclusive leadership to drive meaningful cultural change. Their team is working with us to build, measure and expand learning in key areas such as empathy, curiosity about different perspectives, awareness of cultures and the use of inclusive language. Also it supports stronger relationships across the organization which helps build trust and collaboration. On top of that it supports our career development goals with a digital-first training approach that includes peer to peer learning. The platform also fits well with our core values around achievement, authentic connection and diversity, equity and inclusion. Overall it has been a very collaborative and valuable partnership.

Cons

At the beginning we did run into a few technical issues when trying to access some of the videos. Once the problem was raised though it was addressed quickly and resolved.

Pros

The software was incredibly easy for me to navigate. Its clean interface made progress tracking and course delivery simple and seeing where my coursemates were kept me accountable as well.

Cons

During course delivery, I noticed a few clunky parts where I had to reload pages to get videos playing correctly.

Pros

It is quite user friendly and the platform is simple to move through. Plus it supports multimedia well and lets you build lessons in different lengths which adds a lot of flexibility. The completion tracking is excellent and jumping back in right where you stopped is very convenient.

Cons

One challenge is the way the accountability settings are structured. If one person in a peer learning group falls behind, it can frustrate the rest of the group because their progress gets held up too. At the same time that setup does a good job of keeping everyone aligned with a shared expectation.
