"Our partnership with Pluralsight has allowed us to maintain high standards in technology development, while also scaling our digital initiatives faster than before."
“The pandemic forced us but also enabled us to accelerate upskilling our employees, because, with furloughs, we weren’t going to have the sheer volume of folks to work on projects. So we needed to make sure that the ones we did have had an opportunity to learn about the latest technologies, the latest processes and apply that to be more efficient.”
“One cool feature about Pluralsight is the Skill IQ assessment – a short, 5-minute assessment and based on the results, it will recommend a few courses to get you working better.”
"Investing in [our internal] technology college means investing in the people, in the talent. We do that together with Pluralsight.”
"There’s a lot of technology innovation we’re putting into our CDK products to improve the service experience. We aim to move from a long vehicle purchase process to less than an hour, where users just show up to the dealership, hug their salesman, get their keys, and drive away in their new car."
“One of my concerns as a lead developer is providing training for junior engineers as they’re coming through. I simply provide a standard set of courses and have them start out with that.”
“As we work to acquire skills in rapidly evolving technologies and languages, Pluralsight is ahead of the trend and has training ready for us when we need it – on any mobile, online or offine device we choose. That helps us stay ahead of the innovation curve.”
“Pluralsight really provides the evidence to show that CDK has a lot of focus on learning.”
"Basic tech skill development is table stakes. You have to be looking ahead and focusing on continuous learning to stay relevant and competitive."
"We have a very small team, and the partnership with Pluralsight has been successful in helping us drive what we need to do, and drive it with velocity."
“At Reel FX I feel like we do a really great job of training our artists to understand what they’re doing and really like their shots. They have a greater sense of ownership. That’s why we try to keep our employees here. If they were to go to another studio, they’re going to be such a valuable asset because they know what they’re doing. So we try to keep people here as much as possible because I think we really do a good job at training them.”
“I love it here. I really love it. The studio will feed hungry artists and make sure there’s an opportunity to grow. They will sit and talk with me if I’m feeling stuck or if I feel like my growth is stunted. Reel FX is just a really cool, supportive group of people that want each other to grow as much as they want to grow themselves.”
“My first reaction to learning with Pluralsight was that I was excited to have a great resource for training. Training is the most important element of our jobs that helps ensure that we are all working efficiently and consistently on our projects.”
“We try to have about one or two weeks of training when people come on. We need to get them up to speed with their skills because our schedule is so tight.”
“We want everybody at Sage to understand that the culture at Sage is one where everybody is empowered and confident when it comes to security, no matter what role you're working in.”
