When the pandemic hit, Mountain High Resort had to rapidly adapt their training & onboarding
Mountain High Resort is one of Southern California’s most popular ski resorts, winning numerous awards over the last 20 years. They are consistently attracting new customers and increasing their core visitors’ frequency. A major part of this success is their large team of seasonal workers. So, one of the many challenges that Mountain High faced during the COVID-19 pandemic was finding a way to switch their face-to-face onboarding and training to an LMS that could support fully digital onboarding & training. They needed a blended learning approach that would allow them to create a “next level in employee training” for their team members.
eloomi caught the eye of Mountain High Resort’s HRIS manager
Tammy first noticed eloomi in her search for an LMS because of how simple and engaging the solution is. After speaking with our team and getting a chance to see the platform in action, she knew this was exactly what they were looking for. They quickly began setting up their platform to facilitate the training of their seasonal workers. Previous orientation & training sessions were face-to-face and would consist of up to 35 scheduled presentations every season, ranging from 2-6-hours each to accommodate training for over 1000 employees, which required a great deal of time and resources.
The platform has endless potential in not only providing orientations to the masses but also having individual department training
