Omnitronics launches online learning portal

Released on March 3, a series of webinars is available from the Omni Academy via its online learning portal, for radio dispatch operators and dispatch supervisors, as well as technical teams and resellers.

Traditionally, Omnitronics would make trainers available for site-based onboarding, be it for dispatch operators themselves or for supervisors who would then deliver on-the-job training for their teams of console operators. Travel restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic have seen online training increase and the development of the online training portal, the Omni Academy.

Used by major clients for customised courses over the past 12 months already, Omni Academy will now officially launch to a wider audience with an online dispatch operator course featuring all omnicore enterprise dispatch functionalities.

Comprising a series of short videos, each lesson has been developed with different learner styles and adult learning principles in mind. A trainer demonstrates how a console functionality works and explains the different ways to use it, including actual examples. Successful candidates will receive a certificate at the end.

A Group Management function allows organisations to self-manage users and view course progress and completion analytics.

The Omni Academy will give organisations the freedom to train new operators as and when they need, with a consistent learner experience that is available 24/7/365. The web-based learning management system is available anywhere there is internet connectivity.

Access to the course is available through subscription from 3 March 2022 or free of charge for clients with large Omnitronics systems as part of their premium omnicore support and maintenance plans.
