Drillster for Business

Drillster is an innovative e-learning program that enables employees to learn, memorize, retain and test any kind of learning material in a smart and efficient way. On the PC, laptop, smart phone or tablet (like the iPad). The adaptive algorithm will enable employees to learn more in less time and to memorize the learnt material for a longer period of time. Drillster is based on scientific research (the Leitner system).

Developing the right knowledge is important for any kind of job or role. Companies of all sizes face compliance issues – whether it is to meet government regulations, to achieve standards set by the professional bodies to which they belong, or to obtain and maintain qualifications such as ISO 9000 certification. How can an employer ensure that all employees quickly and efficiently develop their knowledge? And how do you measure the real and permanent proficiency level of each individual employee?

Scientific research has shown that people forget up to 80% of learning material if they do no longer actively work with the material they learnt^[1]. So how can knowledge be retained over time if this knowledge is important for the proper execution of a job? And how can employees be motivated if they are tested on a regular basis on their proficiency of the same material?

Drillster is the right solution. The employees of organizations that use Drillster will learn more in less time and will memorize the learnt material for a much longer period of time (sustainable knowledge). As a company you can easily distribute and monitor any kind of content, set learning objectives and ensure that knowledge is properly anchored in the organisation.
