There's no doubt that the last couple of years have been difficult for business. Some may feel a sense of achievement about having "toughed it out" and survived cuts and redundancies, but in other workplaces, employees may be exhausted and motivation may be dangerously low at a time when recruitment is picking up.

One benefit of the crisis for the employer was talent retention: people stayed because it was too risky to move. Over the summer holiday, time away from the office often gives people a chance to take a step back and look at their options. So what can businesses do to raise morale and to try and prevent talent loss? From June to September, CrossKnowledge is opening up its online Summer Campus, a great opportunity to give employees a boost by training them peacefully during summertime.

CrossKnowledge Summer Campus is designed to revive your weary teams with the best in management, leadership, and personal development training designed with experts from the most famous business schools and universities (HEC, IMD, Harvard, London Business School, etc.). During four months starting from June, they will be able to train or improve themselves on more than 100 topics such as win-win negotiations, sharing a vision, preventing conflicts, developing creativity, etc.

A user-centric distance learning solution, training topics can be selected to address immediate needs or skills deficits: dealing with stress, decision making, or developing emotional intelligence. eLearning can be used by managers as a way of looking after their teams, refreshing their knowledge, equipping them with key skills, and motivating them to be ready for September.

A cost-effective solution, the full range of CrossKnowledge programmes is made accessible to users at a reduced price. For those new to eLearning, this easy-to-pilot solution is a chance for companies to test the water. It's simple to implement for training professionals and a great opportunity for users to browse and complete literally thousands of training programmes whilst business is quiet.

CrossKnowledge ensures that internal marketing is taken care of by providing a video teaser to welcome users, as well as a fully automated animation plan including emails and newsletters twice per month.
