We’re thrilled to announce that we’re expanding our catalog of live online classes, introducing new learning experiences, and launching some exciting platform enhancements. Hone’s employee development platform is the first of its kind, uniting the world’s largest library of live, interactive learning experiences with measurably effective employee development — all in one platform to help organizations upskill their entire team at scale.
Hone gives HR and L&D teams a wide range of flexible learning options to customize employee development to fit their organization’s unique needs. These options include:
- Public Membership classes, where employees can connect with a global network of learners
- Private cohorts designed just for your company
- Instructor-led learning experiences like peer groups and group coaching to help reinforce skills
“For years, the only way to upskill employees at scale was providing recordings and webinars that failed to actually engage learners and help them fully acquire skills,” says Tom Griffiths, CEO at Hone. “That’s why we’re thrilled to unveil the next evolution of Hone, the most interactive, engaging learning of its kind that helps every employee develop the skills that propel their success and your organization forward.”
The all-in-one platform reaches beyond the live leadership training our team has provided for years and boosts our offerings across three key areas:
Instructor-led learning experiences
We’re doubling down on our live, instructor-led learning experiences, with three new learning experiences:
- Peer groups that connect employees with a community of learners to tackle business problems and level up in their career
- DiSC personality assessments that guide employees through an assessment and debrief to enhance self awareness and help teams adapt to communication and work styles
- Team development cohorts that drive alignment and productivity within a team
The three new experiences join our array of learning experiences, including group coaching that helps employees solve specific workplace challenges and practice labs to reinforce class content and hone new skills.
New live, online classes
We’re continuing to expand our catalog of science-backed, industry-leading live classes. Recently, we introduced two series of classes covering project management and customer-facing skills in support of the launch of our newest content pillar, functional skills.
Now, our library of live online classes covers the three pillars of essential skills for today’s rapidly-evolving workplace:
- Leadership and manager skills that help all levels of leaders, from new managers to executives, lead high-performing teams
- Universal skills that accelerate every employee’s success, such as communication, collaboration, analytical thinking, and AI literacy
- Functional skills that elevate a team’s performance, like project management or customer-facing skills, complemented by peer networking groups for sharing best practices
Platform enhancements
At the heart of Hone is our scalable platform that helps HR and L&D leaders deliver effective employee development to their entire organization.
We’re making it easier than ever to tie your Hone programs to your business goals with our updated Impact Analysis! With the Impact Analysis feature, you can view the ROI of learning across every Hone program or class, from top-level impacts on employee happiness and retention to specific skill improvements.
To help learners navigate through Hone’s vast selection of learning experiences, today we unveiled AI-Powered Learning Journeys that help employees find the right class at the right time. The journeys fuel continuous learning with smart recommendations based on inputs from performance reviews, development plans, and more.
Additionally, we’re very excited to announce our upcoming Manager Console that fosters a culture of continuous improvement by giving managers the tools to nurture and oversee employee learning.
And, for the first time ever, Hone is making it possible to integrate live online learning into the HR tech stack. Hone’s integrations span HRIS, LMS, and Business Intelligence platforms, providing a seamless experience that brings Hone’s live online learning and data into HR leaders’ and learners’ go-to platforms.
