Ontario Power Generation Scales Training Across Departments With Articulate 360

O Desafio

Develop professional, in-house training for multiple departments across a large organization

The learning and development team at Ontario Power Generation is primarily responsible for creating HR training, yet this is just one of many types of training the organization requires. Online training is intertwined with OPG’s daily operations, supporting everything from health and safety and compliance to behavioral skills and complex, multi-month leadership programs. 

For Rhonda Chopin, Section Manager for Learning and Development at OPG, that variety means there’s a constant need to create polished, credible training for employees working across technically demanding environments.

OPG needs efficient, multifunctional tools to create accessible, high-quality training at enterprise scale. 

A Solução

Sophisticated programs that combine online training, live instruction, and simulation with Articulate 360

Ontario Power Generation has been using Articulate for more than six years to meet the organization’s high-stakes, high volume training demands. Today, the L&D team uses Articulate 360 to build online learning that works alongside live instruction and simulations as part of larger training programs.

One notable project is OPG’s Leadership Academy Program, a completely redesigned six-month training for current and new leaders. The program blends custom, interactive online training created in Articulate 360 with in-person instruction and simulations. Rise supports the online portion of the journey, introducing participants to the program, orienting them to the experience, and guiding them through e-learning that runs alongside their other learning activities.

Chopin applied that same flexible, custom approach when developing a program for more than 200 HR professionals at OPG. Working with the Senior Vice President of HR, she used Rise to turn relevant content into polished training within a fraction of the expected time.

“The training came together beautifully. We were able to do it in record time with Articulate 360. Our Senior Vice President of HR was expecting it to take weeks to months, and I did it in a matter of days,” says Chopin.

Desenvolvendo o Potencial Humano

Professional, accessible training to set a strong foundation for new and current employees

Articulate 360 gives Chopin and the L&D team the flexibility to develop training for different departments, roles, and needs. By creating training in-house, OPG can build professional, on-brand programs that reflect the organization’s processes and goals—whether it’s supporting a six-month leadership program or launching a new HR training initiative. 

Employees across OPG have access to training programs tailored to their roles and development needs. Current and new leaders follow a structured learning journey designed to support their development over time, while HR professionals receive relevant training built specifically around their work and industry. And interactive digital learning gives employees opportunities to apply what they learn in a safe environment before taking those lessons back to their work.

Ontario Power Generation uses Articulate 360 to develop custom training programs in-house, giving its L&D team the flexibility to support employees across departments, roles, and stages of development.
