Greene King launches online e-learning modules for licensees
Greene King's leased and tenanted arm, Greene King Pub Partners, has launched a range of online e-learning modules for its licensees and staff.
The system allows licensees access to separate modules, each designed to complement the company's classroom training programme.
The eight e-learning modules each cost £15 per person and cover: Customer Service, Bar management, Food Safety Level 2 and Licensing and Social Responsibility for England and Scotland.
They can also be accessed 24/7, meaning licensees have the flexibility to use the modules when it suits them. All staff can access the training and self-train to a qualified, certified level, saving employers' time and resources.
Speaking about the e-learning launch, managing director for Greene King Pub Partners Simon Longbottom said: "This style of learning is essential for our licensees who are already time-pressured running their own businesses, but it is also exactly the right format for many of those working in their pubs. It has been identified that those aged between 17 and 30 learn the most using technology. Providing the courses in this way, with immediate access, is vital to their development and that of the service within our pubs".
E-Learning is available to all pubs via the Greene King Pub Partners Licensee extranet, PubPartners.net.
