According to Brandon Hall Group. <\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This means that most companies are missing out on a key lever to improve their operational performance: external training. In an environment where the supply chain and logistics processes must be agile, consistent and resilient, the   <\/span><b>partner and supplier training is one of the most effective strategies for aligning objectives and multiplying results.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span>\n\n\u00a0\n<h2><b>Why invest in partner training and supplier training?<\/b><\/h2>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most common mistakes in the value chain is to assume that our external collaborators are aligned with our processes, culture and objectives... without having previously worked on it.<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Partner training and supplier training enable:<\/span>\n<ul>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Ensure consistency in quality and service standards.<\/b><\/li>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Reduce operational errors and response times.<\/b><\/li>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Improve communication and collaboration between internal and external teams.<\/b><\/li>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Increase the commitment and loyalty of your strategic partners.<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And all this translates into a more resilient, synchronized and result-oriented supply chain that also allows you to strengthen relationships through training.  <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/actuasolutions.com\/formacion-a-la-empresa-ampliada\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Discover how training your external network of partners, suppliers or distributors can directly help your organization.  <\/span><\/a>\n\n<img class=\"wp-image-12489 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/actuasolutions.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/partners-300x185.png\" alt=\"Training partners\" width=\"701\" height=\"432\">\n\n\u00a0\n<h2><b>How to design an e-learning strategy for your external network<\/b><\/h2>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><b>1. Define joint objectives with your partners and suppliers.<\/b><\/h3>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before designing any training program, ask yourself:<\/span>\n\n<i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What do you expect from your suppliers and what do they need to work better with you? <\/span><\/i>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Co-creating training objectives involves listening and adapting the strategy to both sides of the relationship.<\/span>\n<h3><b>2. Choose an adaptable corporate e-learning platform.<\/b><\/h3>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><b>corporate elearning<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is ideal for this type of audience:<\/span>\n<ul>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Allows training of users from multiple locations.<\/span><\/li>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Guarantees a homogeneous experience.<\/span><\/li>\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facilitates traceability and tracking of results.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Actua, for example, we work with platforms such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/actuasolutions.com\/totara-txp\/\"><b>Totara<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">which allows you to create customized training environments that can be managed from a single point.<\/span>\n<h3><b>3. Segment training according to type of partner or supplier.<\/b><\/h3>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not all partners have the same needs. A distributor does not require the same training as a logistics provider or a technical support center. <\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Offering differentiated training paths improves engagement <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">engagement<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and accelerates learning.<\/span>\n<h3><b>4. Evaluate results and optimize your training strategy.<\/b><\/h3>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Training cannot be an \"event\". It has to become a continuous and strategic process. <\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Periodically evaluate the performance of your external network and adapt the contents according to the challenges of each moment.<\/span>\n\n\u00a0\n<h2><b>External training: your key tool for aligning quality, processes and culture<\/b><\/h2>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Training your partners not only improves their performance.
