In today’s case study, get insights on how MindScroll LMS helped Bata India move to virtual training almost overnight for its 5000 learners amid the COVID-19 pandemic. What’s more is that Bata India’s semi blue-collar non-tech-savvy retail store employees were able to easily train themselves online anytime, anywhere. Definitely not an easy feat! So how was this done? It was the result of MindScroll’s user-friendly interface, great scale-up capabilities, and integration with all major video conferencing platforms that made it all possible.

“We have been using MindScroll since April 2016. It has been truly transformative for our organization. Today employees all across our stores use MindScroll. In fact, it is so popular that instead of calling learning management system or application, everyone calls MindScroll as the de facto training tool. We endorse MindScroll as a transformative learning experience platform (LXP) for an organization. We have received tremendous business gains by using this platform.”
