The Need

 
The Y NSW was looking to strengthen its learning offer through high-quality, relevant content, without investing in a full learning platform.

As an L&D team working within a limited budget, cost and value were critical considerations. They also needed confidence that learning would be used voluntarily, not just assigned and completed for compliance.

Their requirements included:

Their key requirements were clear:

• A cost-effective content solution that worked within a restricted L&D budget
• Confidence in possible ROI, particularly whether teams would engage with unassigned content
• A wide variety of content to meet organisational needs, including Leadership, Communication and Frontline Soft Skills
• Access to downloadable support materials alongside modules
• Learning that continued beyond completion, rather than ending when the module finished
• Short, focused modules that respected learners’ time
• Continuous updates and new content, ensuring learning stayed current
• Clear relevance to Australia, with visibility where content may not apply
• A format that supported engagement and accessibility

In short: How do we provide engaging, relevant learning content that delivers value at scale, without the cost and complexity of a full platform?

Client Comments

 
“We chose Skillshub for a number of reasons, and so far each of those has been well and truly met.

Price was a key factor for us as an L&D team with a limited budget. We were also interested in possible ROI, particularly whether teams would use unassigned content – and it turns out they do.

The variety of content meets our organisational needs, especially around leadership, communication and frontline soft skills. We also value the support documentation, as learning is not ‘over’ when the online module ends.

Modules are short and to the point, content is continuously updated, and there is clear visibility around Australian relevance. We’re also very happy with the format of the content.”
