TORONTO, Ontario – Nov. 20, 2024 – Cognota, the leading LearnOps platform, is excited to announce the launch of its Facilitation Management feature, designed to simplify and enhance the planning and management of training schedules. This innovation expands the functionality of Cognota’s all-in-one LearnOps platform so teams can assign facilitators efficiently, eliminate scheduling conflicts, and consolidate learning workflows, all in one seamless platform.

The Facilitation Management feature enables users to link facilitation schedules with key processes like program planning, task management, content design, and ROI tracking. It’s a game-changing solution for learning and development professionals who want to move beyond outdated Excel sheets and expensive, standalone Training Management Systems to consolidate their learning operations in one platform.

“With this new feature, we’re addressing a common pain point in the learning and development space: managing complex facilitator schedules,” said Ryan Austin, CEO of Cognota. “Facilitation Management not only streamlines scheduling but also provides a holistic view of facilitator capacity, skills, and commitmentsbringing transparency and efficiency to learning operations like never before.”

The tool offers intuitive capabilities, including:

  • Modern Scheduling: Plan and share learning event schedules in one accessible location.
  • Skill and Capacity Matching: Assign facilitators based on skills, location, and language preferences.
  • Conflict-Free Planning: View real-time facilitator commitments to avoid double bookings.

According to Andrew Hegarty, VP of Product at Cognota, “This feature represents the next evolution of our platform, enabling teams to manage all facilitation activities seamlessly. By integrating this tool into our LearnOps platform, we’ve created a unified solution that truly transforms how learning programs are planned and executed.”

Facilitators also benefit from the ability to manage their tasks and schedules independently, further reducing administrative burden and fostering collaboration.

For existing customers, the Facilitation Management feature is now live and accessible via the new ‘Schedule’ page in the Cognota platform. To learn more about Cognota’s software or the Facilitation Management feature, visit cognota.com.
