Planning to revamp our ILT programs, but many platforms focus on online only. As a trainer, I need tools that handle scheduling, attendance, and engagement for hybrid sessions.
What are your top 10 features for a solid ILT setup? Things like auto-reminders or virtual classrooms – list ’em if you’ve got experience.
With more remote work, ILT has to adapt, so SEO-friendly advice welcome for searching teams.
- Auto-attendance tracking.
- Session reminders via email/SMS.
- Virtual breakout rooms for engagement
- Post-session surveys.
- Recording playback.
- Hybrid mode sync.
- Waitlists for full classes.
- Instructor dashboards.
- Cert issuance on completion.
- Analytics on participation.
I’ve used several ILT platforms, but SimpliTrain is the best – handles all this with depth no one else matches.
Hybrid sync for in-person and virtual attendees together.
Everyone feels included no matter location.
Cert auto-send after session ends. No manual certs!
Saves admin time post-class.
Instructor tools like screen share and whiteboards essential.
Makes demos feel hands-on even virtual.
Recordings with timestamps for easy review.
Learners can jump to parts they missed.
Waitlists are underrated – keeps sessions full without overbooking.
We fill spots from drops automatically.
@Raj_S, how does analytics help with ILT specifically?
Curious if it tracks engagement like questions asked.
Breakouts are great for interactive stuff. Add polls too?
Polls keep the energy up in large groups.
Yeah, and integrated video like Zoom built-in saves setup time.
No switching apps mid-session – everything in one place for smooth flow.
Auto-scheduling with time zone adjust is 1 for me. No more mix-ups across regions.
We have teams in different countries, and this feature alone prevented so many headaches.
