CRM Training Enhancement

Streamlined Learning Experience for Funnel CRM

Overview:

The evolution of corporate training is exemplified in the transformation of our CRM (Customer Relationship Management) training program. Collaborating within a dynamic team, I was an instrumental force in reimagining and enhancing the training experience for our CRM, Funnel. This initiative was driven by the goal of maximizing training efficiency while maintaining a strong focus on accessibility and brand cohesion.

Role and Collaborative Process:

As part of a collaborative effort, I worked alongside a senior learning experience designer to rejuvenate the content and design of the CRM training slide deck. The partnership involved close collaboration with the Training Development Manager, who plays a pivotal role in delivering the training. Our collective goal was to condense the extensive 3-hour in-person training into a concise and engaging 1.5-hour webinar.

To achieve this, we meticulously reviewed and restructured the content, focusing on key learning objectives and ensuring a coherent flow. The creation of a pre-work packet was a significant addition, aimed at preparing associates before the training, thereby optimizing the efficiency of the webinar.

Design Considerations and Accessibility:

Accessibility emerged as a central theme in the design process. Recognizing the importance of universal accessibility, I prioritized strong contrast for text, enhancing readability for individuals with varying visual abilities. Furthermore, I made conscious efforts to limit the amount of text on each slide, promoting a clean and engaging visual experience.

In alignment with our brand guide, I ensured that the slide deck embodied our company's visual identity. Adhering to our brand standards, I selected colors, typography, and design elements that mirrored our organizational aesthetics, reinforcing a consistent and cohesive learning journey.

Outcomes and Impact:

The updated CRM training program, with its condensed and focused content, has garnered substantial positive impact. Associates can now engage in a more streamlined and accessible learning experience, allowing them to master the Funnel CRM in a shorter span of time. The pre-work packet not only optimizes the training session but also reinforces a sense of preparedness and engagement among participants.

Through this project, my dedication to enhancing learning experiences is palpable. I have demonstrated my proficiency in collaboration, instructional design, and accessibility considerations, all while aligning with our brand's visual identity. The result is an elevated training journey that seamlessly integrates efficiency, engagement, and accessibility, all vital ingredients for a successful modern training initiative.
