Most law firms understand that they need to provide and support continuous technology training for their attorneys and staff. With the pace of change in the applications that the legal industry uses (I’m looking at you, Microsoft), training is a near-constant endeavor. But how do you make sure that your training is targeted to each individual user’s needs? The answer: you need to offer a technology training assessment for law firms.
Savvy is proud to partner with Procertas to provide the absolute best law firm training assessment on the market.
Because the Procertas Legal Technology Assessment is designed exclusively for the legal industry, it actually tests on the skills that your attorneys and staff must use efficiently and effectively every day, including:
- Bluebook
- Excel
- E-Filing
- PowerPoint
- Word
How Does it Work?
Users take the Legal Technology Assessment in a completely live environment on example documents. On the first Microsoft Word task, for example, users are instructed to turn off track changes and delete comments. The software automatically opens another document for the student to execute this directive. It’s a real-world, hands-on approach to learning that has proven to increase retention considerably.
Results of the technology training assessment for law firms are easily understood. Here is a sample report for one individual:
Why Are Technology Training Assessments for Law Firms Important?
First of all, when a law firm doesn’t provide technology training, the outdated skills utilized by its employees will not only impact efficiency and the bottom line, but also security and long-term viability. So, let’s just assume we all agree that technology training is critical to a firm’s long-term success.
But technology training for law firms is not a one-size-fits-all endeavor. Effective training must be customized to each user’s needs. Otherwise, you risk boring people into apathy and wasting precious time. (Time = money)
Therefore, you want your training program to surgically pinpoint the skills that each user is lacking, train them efficiently, and enable them to move forward with more efficiency and effectiveness.
When you combine the Procertas Legal Technology Assessment with the SavvyAcademy Learning Management System (fully loaded with training content written exclusively for the legal industry), you assure a training experience that empowers attorneys and staff to work at maximum efficiency.
