Online education – exciting value add for our members

SAACIexpress volume 28 No. 16
 
Staying true to our value proposition, which is amongst others, to create a platform to improve skills and encourage sustainable learning; SAACI has launched SAACI Online Academy
(www.saaci-academy.org). The academy, which was once a dream, became reality by partnering with professional players in the digital and education sectors.

SAACI Academy is available to all SAACI members. Simply go to www.saaci-academy.org. To become a SAACI Academy member, complete the short online registration form and choose the monthly membership package convenient to your needs. A SAACI Academy representative will get in touch with you to finalise the membership sign-up.

To view the range of courses, click on ‘Courses’ in the main menu tab. The course selection addresses workplace skills training, personal development, general soft skills to diplomas, and accredited training. Some courses can be completed in a day if you want, others may take a few weeks. It very much also depends on the user’s learning appetite.

SAACI Academy Features

The great thing about SAACI Academy is that each member gets his/her own unique login details and manages his own online learning portfolio.

You study when you want, how you want and from where you want (even from your smartphone).

The online system keeps track of where you last left off so you simply start where you stopped.  There is also no time limit in which to complete your courses, unless specifically specified.

Another exciting feature is the LMS’ (learning management system) reporting function. Team or department managers can view their employees’ learning progress based on specific measuring parameters based on the organisation’s needs.

Organisations can load their own induction courses, SOPs and any other learning material the company wishes to offer to its employees, and brand it with the company’s branding.

Skills development support and guidance can also be provided.

We invite all SAACI members to play around on the SAACI Academy website
(www.saaci-academy.org) If you have any uncertainty or specific needs for your organisation, please contact a SAACI Academy representative at info@saaci-academy.org. We will gladly come meet you and discuss your organisation’s needs in more detail, so that your company can truly experience the value add SAACI Academy has to offer.
