The Workplace Learning Wizard

The Workplace Learning Wizard is an interactive resource finder. Just answer a few short questions and discover the right educational materials for your role, interests and needs. This is a great resource to share with others in your organization who are looking for ways to use Workplace to its full potential.
The Workplace Adoption Booster Kit

The Workplace Adoption Booster Kit

Workplace might be a simple tool, but that doesn’t mean that everyone is aware of everything it has to offer. Your Workplace users need to discover all the ways that Workplace can make their jobs easier in order to be fully engaged on the platform.
That’s why we created the Workplace Adoption Booster. The toolkit was designed to help you share Workplace knowledge with your organization in fun and creative ways. It contains:
  • Short Workplace quick tip videos
  • A set of challenge cards, an editable challenge card template and a custom badge
  • Instructions on how to use assets and sample post copy
  • A template Knowledge Library category you can copy and paste into your own Workplace Knowledge Library
  • A new “Welcome to Workplace” video you can share with new joiners
