How SkillsTown is an extension of consulting firm TWST

In late 2019, Dictus Nicolai came into contact with SkillsTown. "I was excited about the professionalism of the platform, but I didn't immediately see how we could apply it." Until the arrival of Corona. Working from home became the norm and communication went online. Working full-time on-site at client sites was no longer an option, and Dictus thought back to his conversation with SkillsTown. Hybrid working was the norm and soon the partnership was a reality.

"Both on paper and mentally, we entered into a strategic partnership with SkillsTown. By adding our own content to the existing materials, the platform is actually part of our pathways. This makes it an extension of TWST and in this way we offer our client the best of both worlds. Skills change, competencies change, learning needs change. Performing better and better requires a continuous learning attitude. Lifelong learning, development and improvement is our common starting point."

The result is a unique hybrid advising and learning model: professional and performance-based advisors and a professional online learning platform.

A perfect combination of personal and digital

TWST's purpose is to help all executives realize their own ambitions. "They are in transition. Our passion is to teach them to do it themselves. We achieve that by transferring our own approach to them; directly applicable at work and result-oriented. The strength of this new 'hybrid package' fits perfectly with that: the combination of personal contact with an online platform. This way we can make our customers successful with pleasure."

"Lifelong learning, development and improvement is our shared principle"

"What appeals to me so much about SkillsTown is their passion for learning, development and didactics. We ourselves are also passionate about helping our customers. In addition, the platform offers enormous possibilities. The amount of learning content and its different forms inspire us to get started with it. We can combine that with our own content, which is very easy to add to the existing materials. We are already converted, now it is up to TWST to test and apply the possibilities in practice and give it our own (customer) flavor."
