PLEASANTON, Calif., Aug. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- ThinkHR, a provider of expert HR resources, today introduced ThinkHR Learn, a new cloud-based training solution that enables companies to maintain compliance, lessen risk and increase employee productivity. ThinkHR Learn offers unlimited access to more than 300 courses, designed to keep employees up to date with the training that matters most, such as sexual harassment and discrimination courses that can help reduce a company's risk and liability.

"At ThinkHR we answer more than 50,000 questions each year on our hotline and have tens of thousands of end users on our cloud-based resources. All these interactions with HR professionals give us a unique vantage point into the type of solutions they are looking for to grow their workforce," said Pete Yozzo, founder and CEO of ThinkHR. "ThinkHR Learn is designed to help business owners and HR professionals diminish risk, protect employees and improve their performance and professional growth. It is one more example of how ThinkHR is redefining the way organizations resolve complex HR and compliance issues."

ThinkHR Learn delivers short courses that are followed by action items employees must complete after the training. By encouraging employees to "learn by doing," ThinkHR Learn fosters greater retention of training material and shows employees how that information can help them excel professionally. Employees receive unlimited access to a wide range of courses focused on minimizing risk and increasing employee and company compliance. Topics include sexual harassment and discrimination, OSHA requirements, workplace safety, hazard communications, ethics, substance abuse in the workplace, and diversity. Management-focused tracks include project management, effective meetings and courses designed to improve employee performance.

"Business owners and HR managers may be required to provide specific training, but they also are faced with tight budgets and limited time. They want an employee training solution that is easy to deploy, easy to use, and easy to manage," said Michael Wood, ThinkHR vice president of product development. "ThinkHR Learn is designed to offer an intuitive interface that is simple to understand and functionality that will save managers time in administering training."

For HR professionals, ThinkHR streamlines the effort of managing and tracking employee compliance and training. The platform notifies the administrator when an employee receives a certificate. Robust reporting tools enable administrators to quickly see who has completed a course and when, and reports can be exported to help keep records of certificates and course completions. By delivering greater visibility into which employees have and have not completed required training, ThinkHR can reduce risk and liability for businesses of all size.

ThinkHR Learn is available now. Users can test drive the training platform with a free trial for a limited time at http://pages.thinkhr.com/learn.
