Corporate and Frontline Workers Can Now Experience Learning and Development Seamlessly through Microsoft Teams

WATERLOO, ONTARIO – June 6, 2023 – Axonify, a leader in frontline employee enablement, today announced the availability of its frontline learning and enablement platform on Microsoft AppStore, an online cloud marketplace providing tailored line-of-business solutions. Available through Microsoft Teams on desktop or mobile, Axonify’s training solution, driven by artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), can now provide Microsoft users with streamlined access to learning in the flow of work and drive industry-leading knowledge retention rates.

According to McKinsey, 90% of organizations say they will have a meaningful skills gap in the coming years. With an unstable labor market marred by layoffs and resignations alike, the ability to retain not only talent but also develop the skills necessary to move the business forward has become increasingly difficult. Businesses, especially those that employ corporate and frontline workers, need the ability to onboard, train and reinforce skills by engaging employees in microlearning paths on the programs, apps and processes they’re already using at work. Axonify’s ability to offer Teams users its learning platform inside Teams decreases roadblocks that limit engagement and learning, such as multiple sign-ons and passwords, siloed information and user inexperience with new platforms.

In addition to providing Teams users with a simplified experience, Axonify’s employee enablement solution breaks training down into smaller, manageable pieces, and provides users with spaced repetition and intelligent reinforcement that helps employees retain information. Within Teams, employees can consolidate and search for information they may need to perform their jobs after their training is complete. 

“With an unstable economy and continued skills gap, businesses can’t afford not to engage their employees in training and skills reinforcement. This is especially important for corporate and frontline workers in certain industries and job functions, such as retail, contact centers, pharmaceutical and professional sales, that face the biggest threat from inflation, recession and consumer demands,” said Shannon Hebert, Director of Partnerships, Axonify. “The reach and usage of Microsoft Teams in companies of all sizes ensures we can reach the types of employees that will benefit from our learning and enablement platform and help corporate and frontline workers thrive in today’s challenging workplace.”

Toby Bowers, General Manager, Business Applications Group, Microsoft Corp. said, “We’re happy to welcome Axonify to Microsoft AppSource, which gives our partners great exposure to cloud customers around the globe. Microsoft AppSource offers partner solutions such as the Axonify frontline enablement platform to help customers meet their needs faster.”

Axonify boasts a strong partner ecosystem, including Zebra, Achievers, and UKG to name a few, that helps businesses benefit from microlearning and a focus on developing skills that stick using personalized, engaging, fast learning and reinforcement.
