Keeping People Connected with Live-Virtual Training

为了让人们最大限度地发挥他们的潜力，实现他们的职业目标，减少压力，过上充实的生活，他们必须获得新的技能，知识和培训，使他们能够控制自己的未来。由于2019冠状病毒病，在学习和保持联系至关重要的时候，学习机会被广泛取消。英国劳动力需要获得各种学科的持续学习机会，包括在远程工作条件下表现出色，保持虚拟联系或领导虚拟团队。COVID-19也严重或永久地扰乱了就业，这意味着人们比以往任何时候都更需要负担得起的支持，以提高就业能力。在不确定和变化的时期获得世界一流的教育，有助于心理健康，并创造一支准备好在2019冠状病毒病威胁后利用机会的英国劳动力队伍。通过使用该项目的EdTech平台，更多地采用实时虚拟培训，提高专业教育工作者的技能，使他们能够将课堂课程带到网上，以及颠覆性的创新商业模式，将使小型企业、个人和失业者能够获得实时虚拟学习机会。该平台还将成为许多自由职业培训师/教练的重要支持来源，他们在2019冠状病毒病后的亲自工作被取消。该项目将使教练/培训师能够将他们的材料转换为实时虚拟格式，而不是像今天其他在线培训那样预先录制或讲座。他们将学习创建虚拟角色扮演的技能，融入分组会议，提出鼓励活跃的小组聊天的问题，以及如何在整个培训过程中保持高参与度。培训师将学习如何使用语音来虚拟地鼓励参与，以及如何通过摄像头创造目光接触。通过这个培训平台，他们将拥有新的思维方式、工具和能力，使他们的项目变得生动起来。目标是将高技能的培训师与每个人以及在这一困难时期需要他们支持的任何人联系起来。该项目的商业模式和教育技术平台旨在提高1000名受COVID-19影响的英国工人的技能，使英国能够更好地保持就业水平，在全球市场上更具竞争力，并更有弹性地应对类似的中断。该项目解决了占英国企业98%的中小型公司以及自营职业者或失业者的需求。--------------------延长赠款将通过资助额外的业务发展计划和建立新的商业伙伴关系，帮助加快上市速度。它还将使新开发的EdTech平台得到更有效的利用，在全国范围内发布产品，包括创建和部署创始人的故事到国家出版物。Intrinsic Energy也将能够发展其CRM能力和营销策略，以针对潜在用户的产品主张。商业模式将根据项目的关键经验进行修订，以结合B2C和B2B业务增长，并建立24个月的财务预测。

In order for people to maximise their potential, reach their career goals, decrease stress and live fulfilling lives, they must have access to new skills, knowledge and training enabling them to take control of their futures. Due to COVID-19, there has been widespread cancelation of learning opportunities at a time when learning and staying connected is essential. The UK workforce needs access to continuous learning opportunities on a variety of subjects including excelling in remote working conditions, staying connected virtually or leading virtual teams. Jobs are also being severely or permanently disrupted by COVID-19 which means more than ever people need affordable support to become more employable. Access to world-class education during times of uncertainty and change, supports mental health and wellness as well as creating a UK workforce that is ready to take advantage of opportunities after the threat of COVID-19\. The greater adoption of live virtual training through the use of this project's EdTech Platform, up-skilling of professional educators on how to bring their classroom programs alive online, and a disruptive, innovative business model will enable accessibility to live, virtual learning opportunities for small businesses, individuals and the unemployed.This platform will also be a vital source of support to many freelance trainers/coaches who have seen their in-person work cancelled in the wake of COVID-19\. This project will enable coaches/trainers to transform their material into a live-virtual format that is not pre-recorded or a lecture like other online training available today. They will learn the skills to create virtual role-plays, incorporate break-out sessions, ask questions which encourage active group-chats and how to keep participation high throughout the training. Trainers will learn how to use voice to virtually encourage engagement and how to create eye-contact through a camera. They will be equipped with a new mindset, tools and abilities to make their programs come to life through this training platform.The goal is to connect highly skilled trainers virtually with everyone and anyone who needs their support during this difficult time. This project business model and EdTech Platform aims to up-skill 1,000 UK workers effected by COVID-19, positing the UK in a better place to maintain employment levels, be more competitive in the global markets and be more resilient to similar disruption. This project addresses the needs of the small/medium sized companies that account for >98% of UK businesses plus the self-employed or un-employed.--------------------The grant extension will help accelerate speed to market by funding additional business development initiatives and creation of new commercial partnerships. It will also enable the newly developed EdTech platform to be exploited more effectively, with a nation-wide product launch, including the creation and deployment of the founder story to national publications. Intrinsic Energy will also be able to develop its CRM capability and marketing strategy to target the product proposition to potential users. The business model will be revised to incorporate both B2C and B2B business growth based on key learnings from the project, and a 24 month financial forecast established.
