SIE's 'BOOKNS' Takes Center Stage in Workforce Development

In a significant move to enhance employee training and development, SIE Co., Ltd., headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo, has rolled out its innovative online learning platform, 'BOOKNS', at SIS Techno Service Co., Ltd. This collaboration aims to meet the growing needs for IT and digital transformation talent development. Starting from April 2025, 'BOOKNS' will serve as a key online resource for enhancing the skills of SIS Techno Service employees.

The Rationale Behind Implementation

SIS Techno Service has established itself as a leader in IT infrastructure and operations. The company emphasizes a 'Employee First' policy to ensure its workforce can adapt to rapid technological advancements and increasing customer demands. Their mid-term vision revolves around supporting customers' IT ambitions through the continued personal and professional growth of each employee.

To maximize employee development, SIS Techno Service determined the need for a more autonomous learning environment. Traditional group training and on-the-job training (OJT) proved insufficient to meet the evolving learning needs of their employees. They found 'BOOKNS' to be particularly appealing due to its robust coaching features, which enable tailored learning support and enhance the learning experience through consistent feedback and motivation.

This approach is expected to improve the quality and continuity of employee learning, providing them with the tools necessary to grow and advance in their careers.

'BOOKNS' is a subscription-based online learning service tailored specifically for IT and digital transformation training, boasting an impressive library of over 2,000 videos and more than 4,000 practice questions focused exclusively on these fields. The service offers a unique blend of coaching by expert instructors and self-directed learning opportunities, catering to various skill levels from beginners to seasoned professionals.

With over 40 different courses spanning topics such as development, infrastructure, and security, employees can choose areas of study that align with their career aspirations and organizational needs.

Five Features of 'BOOKNS':

1. Original Materials: Presents the latest in IT technology.
2. Coaching Support: Offers question-answer and coaching functions to foster continuous learning.
3. Community Functions: Enables participants to exchange information with peers learning the same course.
