Why Virtual Troop by Brightcore?

At Brightcore Consulting, we understand the importance a good LMS hosting partner.

Brightcore Consulting has put together the Virtual Troop LMS offering to include: online training for scouts, virtual groups, leader training, sales training and internal training.  The product training is in direct response to many groups reporting lower sales last year. The Virtual Troop LMS is an attempt to retain members and volunteers in the upper age ranges and increase retention as they get older. The Virtual Troop LMS offering will give the leaders an environment for better collaboration and tracking of the Virtual Troop and the members enrolled in that troop to include:

  • Unlimited Virtual Troops
  • Structured Troop environment online
  • Course and activity completion tracking
  • Assignment uploading, tracking and feedback tools
  • Online collaboration via discussion boards for each level
  • Troop leader led virtual meetings
  • Reporting for activities completed, time spent, etc
  • Flexible content creation for Troop leaders
  • Project and Pathway tracking with feedback
  • Auto generated completion certificates based on criteria
  • With the overall goal of creating a real “Troop” member feeling in cyberspace
  • Migrate or import completion data to SalesForce if your group is implementing that solution
  • Costs less than 10% of your website migration and SalesForce implementation costs combined on average

The online training offered by national is offered in the clear with no tracking or consolidated reporting. The Virtual Troop LMS will give you the detailed tracking information and advanced reporting you have been looking for!

We have been hosting non-profit online training since 2011, As an example, we currently manage several of the largest non-profit organizations’ online learning system as well as developed their learning content modules for leader and member training. Last year, the 3rd largest moved entirely to an on-line training format for the mandatory volunteer training courses with great success and costs savings. Over 1,000 volunteers have taken the online courses which uses a single curriculum to teach a consistent set of standards and objectives to all. The Learning Management System and the online learning modules made training the rural  leaders more efficient and effective while reducing costs for all involved.

Our experience has shown us that each organization is unique and requires a different solution. Brightcore Consulting is here to work with you to find a solution that is appropriate for your requirements and budget. This flexibility ranges from all inclusive hosting and support packages to a shared revenue model that greatly reduces start-up costs. The LMS is fully customizable to your needs. Add profile fields, create custom reports, export all data or import in-person training records.

Can we set up a time to discuss how Brightcore can partner with your team to take advantage of your own Learning Management System to cut costs and train your volunteers more effectively?
