It's the end of the day and you still need to add a dozen users to the LMS, send them login credentials, and then run the grade reports your boss asked for. If only you had budget to hire someone to do all the mundane administrative work that comes with running a training department, you'd be able to focus on what you do best—building training. The training team at BlueCat was barely able to keep up with day-to-day operations until they came up with a solution: let the robots do it!

In this case study discover how BlueCat used simple automation tools to help make up for a lack of manpower. You'll learn about the types of tasks that can be automated, the infrastructure needed to support automation, and the immediate cost savings that can be achieved. You'll then learn how you can auto-generate video content and deploy cloud-based apps to automate administrative tasks common to many training departments. You'll leave this session ready to automate all the boring stuff so that you can focus on the fun stuff—building best in class training.
