We trained 100 staff from 30 Ontario small businesses.
The Ontario Chamber of Commerce (OCC) supports 60,000 businesses, educators, and non-profits through policy efforts and business services.
As part of its continuing mission to boost Ontario’s competitiveness and support its economic growth, OCC wanted to expand its learning programs for small businesses.
The Problem
The OCC’s clients needed training in ecommerce, DEI awareness, and staff mental health.
In a post-pandemic era, the OCC’s small business partners needed an engaging, remote-first training solution that employees could engage with on a flexible schedule.
Our Solution
We provided them asynchronous training and hands-on support.
We trained 100 employees from 30 small businesses, providing 20 hours of learning material across a 12-week program.
I was really excited to learn more about the different kinds of e-commerce solutions that could benefit different aspects of my business’ functioning and I found PreprLabs to be an ideal environment for undergoing this learning experience more or less at my own pace.
