80% of XXL Sports & Outdoor’s almost 800 training modules is product training related to skiing gear, trekking equipment and any other sports and outdoor supplies you can think of. Their other learning modules span across sales and service, store concepts, leadership, and compliance training. As part of their onboarding, new hires must complete specific training modules within their first month of employment.

It’s fast for XXL to create learning modules with eloomi’s easy Content Builder. This means that the Learning & Development team, and internal subject matter experts, can create new modules or import their existing content to make a unique learning experience. 

As part of the learning management solution, XXL’s Training and Development team is also using the in-platform survey functionality to evaluate onsite and online training. Teams in XXL also have the option to use eloomi’s handy online checklist tool to follow up on everyday routines in the stores.

Jon Harald Johnsen and the team at XXL Sports & Outdoor has succeeded in expanding their XXL Academy from onsite training only to primarily e-learning in a blended learning approach with the eloomi learning management software. To remain an attractive employer and the preferred supplier of great customer experience for sports and outdoor enthusiasts they intend to expand their upskilling and employee engagement with more people development initiatives in the future.
