WELCOME TO THE NEW BiKBBI CAMPUS E-LEARNING PORTAL Campus is an exciting new online learning portal providing a virtual training centre for installers to gain product knowledge, installation expertise and sector learning. Campus allows installers to gain expertise through courses developed by KBB suppliers, giving them the chance to be seen as ‘accredited installers’ for specific manufacturers who may well then pass on installation leads. As well as courses developed by suppliers and retailers, Campus will also contain targeted business courses including Cyber Security, Manual Handling, GDPR and Social Media Awareness. There is also a social element to Campus known as ‘Forum’, a peer-to-peer platform which allows installers to direct message other installers and supplier 12
experts who can offer installation support and product advice. For manufacturers and retailers, Campus represents an excellent way to connect with nearly 7000 installers, delivering training which enhances their brand and ensures correct installation for their products, in turn reducing service calls. Manufacturers and retailers can also engage with installers who have completed their training, offering further support through the discussion Forum and creating brand and product range awareness. Campus is a collaboration between BiKBBI, KBB Diagnostic and Cortexa. Cortexa is an expert at developing e-learning solutions, creating content built to deliver fast results. Suppliers interested in content development should contact
Cortexa on 0330 024 2881, or email info@cortexa.co.uk. Content is currently being developed and uploaded to the Campus site, and more news on its launch date will be available soon. BiKBBI will email installers when Campus goes live. Jon Thelwell, BiKBBI Board Advisor states, “Campus is a really exciting development for installer members, corporate partners and BiKBBI. The Forum social element allows for peer-to-peer advice, supported by supplier experts who can lend their expertise to solve installation issues. At the same time, Campus e-learning provides resources for installers to upgrade their skills and knowledge – vital in today’s increasingly technical and complex world.” BiKBBI e-learning
