Episode 24: Best Practices in Configurations of the Training Section with Gretchen Dixson

This week Philippe Gaudreau, CEO and founder of SOLABS, is joined by return guest Gretchen Dixson, the Senior Product Specialist and Head Trainer at SOLABS. Today, they're discussing the training section and some of the most common use cases she has encountered while working with clients in terms of configuring and helping improving practices in that area.

Training is a key subject as most users of SOLABS QM will have to log into it once in a while in order to record training. Philippe recommends you check episode 2 of SOLABS QM Insights as well to become more familiar with some of the concepts in the training section mentioned in this episode.

Be sure to tune in to hear all of Gretchen's key insights into the best practices when it comes to the training section!
