Case Study: The YMCA of Northern Alberta achieves rapid onboarding and compliance with SkyPrep

How they deployed SkyPrep to achieve their training goals

The YMCA needed a faster, scalable way to onboard and train a large, dispersed workforce — more than 1,300 employees and 400 volunteers across multiple sites — because classroom-only instruction created long backlogs and delays. After reviewing options they chose SkyPrep’s learning management platform (LMS) to provide an affordable, easy-to-use online solution that would support varied content types and simple enrollment for users of all computer skill levels.

Using SkyPrep, The YMCA moved onboarding online, assigned managers to oversee user groups, and used reporting to ensure compliance with required policies and courses. The result: training that once could take up to six months now starts immediately, summer intakes of roughly 250 day-camp hires can be onboarded quickly, backlog was eliminated, and administrators can track completion and hold managers accountable — all enabled by SkyPrep.
