Share "how-to," "what works," and "what's new" to make your workforce more nimble and productive.

Employees are increasingly comfortable with social technologies in all aspects of their lives and expect to have similar tools at work. Employers who strive for competitive advantage will tap into the natural, social learning styles and interactions of their employees to increase knowledge retention and improve performance.

SuccessFactors Social Learning, powered by SuccessFactors Jam, makes this happen by drawing on the concepts of popular web 2.0 tools like YouTube and Facebook to offer easy content creation, sharing, discovery and social networking combined with workplace communities.

  • Easy to use. No training necessary. Your team can begin creating and sharing content immediately because the user experience is similar to the social networking tools they use every day at home.
  • Find what you need. Use tags, groups, and bundles to find exactly what you're looking for quickly and easily.
  • Easy content creation and uploading process. No more emailing huge files — now you can create, share, rate and discuss content faster than ever.
  • Fast to deploy. Fits into any learning or collaboration environment in a secure, affordable SaaS platform.

Informal & social learning improves formal training

By adding a social community around each formal class, you'll improve the speed of learning adoption and the return on your learning investment. With SuccessFactors Social Learning, not only is document distribution a snap (even from SharePoint), but learners can do pre-work and discuss the concepts before, during and after the formal class. The return? Learning retention and speed to performance is increased, while overall learning costs can be decreased.
