Currently there’s no solution in LATAM for medium sized companies, and with more companies working remotely the need for tools that will help keep teams aligned and focused on priorities while filling learning gaps is growing as well.
The friction needed to create courses for specific skills or roles is the whole reason why Lernit is now a reality, we want to make upskilling available for every role and level, and thanks to our authoring tool that enables companies to create courses in minutes, our marketplace with up to 6 new courses per week and our strategic alliances with great universities that gives our users access to learning programs is that we are able to keep up with a fast evolving market and organizational needs.
Hey HN! I’m Santiago Maldonado, CEO and Founder of Lernit (https://www.lernit.mx/). Our platform makes it easy for companies in Latin America (Latam) to train their workforce, even when they are remote.
According to studies, 74% of CEOs worldwide are concerned that a lack of essential skills in their employees is threatening the future of their organization. With the increase of remote work comes the challenge of keeping teams aligned and pushing in the same direction.
When I graduated from college, the biggest learning platforms were Coursera and Udemy, and it hit me that there is an immense gap between what you learn in an on-demand course and what you do at your job. Usually, these courses were outdated and had no relevance to what employers wanted their employees to learn. So I saw a huge opportunity to create Lernit, where companies could ensure that their employees were learning valuable skills that could be used at their job.
We allow companies to develop online courses on the specific skills their employees require for accomplishing organizational goals and personal growth while staying focused on priorities. These priorities are easily visualized and aligned to the company's main objectives through OKRs (Objectives and Key Results for a specific period). Each individual can check in and track progress while receiving feedback and mentoring in a collaborative environment.
We offer an all-in-one solution for HR teams where companies can set, align and track goals, evaluate performance, train and develop their workforce and build culture without the trouble of managing different tools at expensive prices.
We are eager to help companies reach growth and more than happy to answer any questions you may have about our talent platform, so if you have any or are just curious please leave a comment!
Please let us know if you have any additional feedback or questions, we will be happy to hear back from you.
