Citrix GoToTraining Lets You Train Employees Remotely

Do you have a mobile workforce  that you’d like to train, but don’t want to fork over the travel-related costs? Citrix has the answer for companies looking to send workers to employee boot camp with its new GoToTraining.

The Mac and PC-compatible GoToTraining enables companies to save time and reduce travel costs by moving their training curriculum online and delivering sessions to trainees in multiple locations. Some of the features include:

• Full-service registration makes it easy to schedule, track and manage cancellations. Trainers can limit class size to optimize interaction during sessions and an online course catalog lets participants self-register for training sessions.

• Content library and material distribution lets trainers organize, store and reuse course materials such as tests, surveys and recordings, and eliminates the need to email materials to attendees.

• Real-time curriculum management features allow trainers to instantly adjust programming based on real-time feedback. Trainers can update polls, tests and materials on-the-fly in session.

• Testing options allow trainers to measure attendee knowledge prior to sessions and gauge retention of course material both during and after sessions conclude.

• Integrated audio conferencing gives organizers the option to offer phone conferencing, VoIP, or both to attendees.

Pricing is determined by the number of attendees present. If you’re expecting a maximum of 25 seats, GoToTraining costs $140 per month, or $1,428 annually; a maximum of 200 attendees will drive the cost up to $349 per month, or $3,348 annually. Even better, when you purchase GoToTraining, GoToMeeting is included at no extra cost.
