Online Training Service "Workschool" Releases Video Content for "Basic Social Skills Course"

TRUNK Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Ryo Nishimoto, hereinafter "TRUNK"), which operates the online training service "Workschool," has added new video content to its "Basic Social Skills Course" learning content.

Background of the Release of Video Content for the "Basic Social Skills Course"

Reporting, communication, business etiquette, and more. These fundamental skills as a working adult are the foundation required in all workplaces, regardless of industry or job type.

However, in actual training situations, there are many voices saying, "We cannot secure time for OJT instructors" or "Employees are assigned to the field without resolving individual differences."

We have received requests from various companies, including those using Workschool, saying, "We want an environment where basic social skills can be learned easily not only through text but also through video."

In response to these requests and with the aim of further enhancing learning through video content, we have now added videos to the "Basic Social Skills Course."

In the future, we plan to sequentially expand video content to other courses besides the Basic Social Skills Course.

What is Workschool?

Workschool is an e-learning system (LMS) that supports corporate human resource development.

It establishes a "mechanism to continue learning" and a "learning experience that connects to skills usable in the field," and supports the resolution of issues such as stagnant learning rates and poor knowledge retention that often occur after implementation.

Points Highly Praised by Many Companies

A learning experience that participants "can't help but do" With gamification features such as team rankings and badge acquisition, it has a mechanism that encourages participants to continue learning voluntarily, rather than feeling like they are "being forced to learn." The mechanism of learning as a team fosters a sense of competition and camaraderie, naturally leading to improved participation and retention rates.

Unlimited access to over 2,000 content items In addition to "Basic Social Skills," to which videos have now been added, we offer many training packages that can be utilized regardless of department or level, including business etiquette, compliance, management, and leadership.

Comment from TRUNK Inc.

Executive Officer / Content Manager, Yoshio Hiraya

At TRUNK Inc., through our e-learning system "Workschool," we have received many requests from companies saying, "We want an environment where employees can systematically acquire skills and knowledge related to basic social skills through e-learning."

The reason for adding video content to Workschool's Basic Social Skills Course, which has been provided as text content since 2023, is that we believe skills such as execution, problem discovery, and listening are more easily understood and retained by learners when they can see and hear explanations from experienced instructors, not just read text.

With this update, over 60 video content items have been added in cooperation with NOWVILLAGE Inc., a company with a proven track record in corporate new employee training, making it a course where basic social skills can be acquired in a more practical manner. We hope to contribute to the improvement of each learner's practical skills while reducing the burden on corporate training managers.

Comment from Supervisor

NOWVILLAGE Inc. Representative Director, Mitsuhiro Imamura

I served as the supervisor for Workschool's "Basic Social Skills." As a sponsoring company of the General Incorporated Association "Social Basic Skills Council," I am involved in industry-academia collaboration. Furthermore, for the past 25 years, I have been involved in new employee training and young employee development for various corporations every year. Based on this knowledge, I am conveying particularly important information through video, which was previously provided as text content.

Basic social skills are easily mistaken for skills needed to enter society, but as the "Basic Social Skills for the 100-Year Life Era" suggests, they are a compilation of skills that should be acquired as a working adult.

The content conveyed in this video allows for the practical application of these skills by imagining their use cases. I hope that by utilizing this extensively and accumulating experience, individuals can accelerate their growth.
