Talent Slate 2.5 - NetDimensions Mobile Learning App

The ability to launch modules without downloading them to a device and randomized offline testing are among the highlights of the newly-released NetDimensions Talent Slate 2.5 mobile learning app.

In addition to the strong offline capabilities of the market-leading native mobile learning application for iPad and Android tablets, Talent Slate 2.5 provides even more convenience for users with a reliable Internet connection by allowing them to directly launch learning modules without downloading them.

This new functionality allows learners to access module types that are not available or supported by Talent Slate when they are offline. They are also now able to access knowledge centers – containing a wealth of resources to help them get the most out of their training – directly from a learning module’s detail view.

Randomization, a key feature of NetDimensions’ assessments, will be included in exams when they are taken offline as part of Talent Slate 2.5. This means that L&D teams will have the ability to make the sequence and selection of questions unpredictable, even when learners are taking tests offline. This goes a long way in preventing learners from passing assessments by memorizing the order of correct answers.

Talent Slate 2.5 includes complete support for pop-up window content, which is necessary for some users and supports courseware which relies on pop-up windows. Enabling these brings closer parity between the capabilities of the course player in Talent Slate and those of a conventional web browser.

These new features build upon and are available to users of the latest version of NetDimensions Talent Suite. Launched in November 2017, version 13.2 contains a wealth of capabilities allowing organizations in highly-regulated industries to enjoy world-class learning and performance management.

About Talent Slate 2.5

"Adding to robust, industry-leading offline capabilities, the Talent Slate 2.5 release focuses on online integration,” said Scott Tompkins, NetDimensions’ Mobile Development Manager. "Empowering your users with mobile access to formal and informal learning opportunities allows them to learn on their terms, when or where it's convenient for them."

"We're proud of our support for all major mobile platforms and form factors. In a world where ‘Bring your own Device’ (BYOD) policies are increasingly common at work, it's preferable to support mobile access to learning for all your users, not just those who use a specific platform."

Talent Slate supports iOS and Android phone and tablet devices, as well as Windows 10 desktop, laptop and tablet devices. The new features have been added in direct response to feedback from NetDimensions’ customers.

“I am very excited about this release of the Talent Slate mobile app as it is a major step forward in delivering both online, offline and brandable mobile experience for our customers,” said Bill Mastin, Senior Vice President at NetDimensions. “Scott Tompkins has done an amazing job with leading the team to deliver this and I look forward to seeing how our customers capitalize on the latest version of this app.”

NetDimensions will showcase Talent Slate and other features of its award-winning LMS at Learning Technologies 2018, from 31 January to 1 February 2018 at the Olympia in London. Find the team at stand D18.
