NEW PORT RICHEY, Fla., – October 31, 2024: Skillable, the pioneer in hands-on learning and skill validation announces new product features aimed at simplifying the lab experience for admins and users, making labs more scalable and easily tailored to specific needs and audiences.
Focused on scalability, efficiency and performance
A primary update to the Skillable interface includes the Visual Instructions Editor that enables lab developers with no prior coding experience to create instructions and add interactive elements to labs through an intuitive interface. This creates opportunities for any lab developer to generate and modify the lab instructions they need to train learners effectively and in a tailored way.
Additionally, improvements to Skillable’s Template Gallery allow admins to clone pre-built environments, then tweak their configurations to meet specific needs. This offers speed in building, as well as greater flexibility and customization in the lab creation process.
With significant global growth over the past year, which includes the delivery of 7.5 million labs to nearly 1.4 million unique users for a total of nearly 8.3 million hours of engagement, Skillable is boosting global lab performance and reducing latency through smart geolocation. This ensures the nearest datacenter for a learner is used for their lab experience.
Hands-on learning in Cornerstone OnDemand
Alongside the product release, Skillable is now available for Cornerstone OnDemand customers with Cornerstone’s Professional Skills, Technology, Public Sector, Public Sector Technology or SMB Essentials Curated Subscriptions.
