Key benefits of Olive for Training VLE for Gourmet Food Parlour

With burgeoning expansion, The GFP HR team faced mounting admin tasks and manual processes as they attempted to train new staff across their 6 bustling locations. Their traditional training approach relied heavily on in-person sessions, necessitating countless hours from both trainers and managers. The system was not only resource-intensive but also struggled to keep up with the rapid pace of hiring.

Realising the need for a more efficient solution, Gourmet Food Parlour partnered with Dylan and the team at Olive for Training to implement bespoke, video-based courses alongside automated booking and accreditation. This revolutionary shift dramatically reduced the time trainers spent on logistics, freeing them to focus on quality engagement. The results were staggering: administrative tasks were slashed, and the streamlined process empowered both staff and trainers.
