Who is DotActiv?At DotActiv, we pride ourselves on providing the global retail market with high-quality category management software and advisory services that improve the in-store shopping experience for everyone.

Importantly, internal knowledge needs to be captured in various forms of engaging content.
External: Ensure that customers have the required levels of knowledge regarding our products, services and consulting to maximise the value potential of their DotActiv purchases. Software customers require a different kind of learning when compared to services customers.
CultureTo play an integral role in changing the culture to a "learning organisation".

Platforms and FormatThe format knowledge transfer will take place remotely using a continuously evolving set of online tools.

It also contains internal focussed self-service courses
- Video Conferencing - the toolset above will not always have the appropriate content for every scenario therefore there is a place for customised live one-on-one learning interventions. This learning will almost always take place via video conferencing tools such as Google Meet, Skype, Zoom or similar
It is important to note that DotActiv is currently experiencing rapid change due to growth and geographic expansion, therefore, this list of duties is not exhaustive and is also subject to reasonable function related changes as may be required:
- Align training focus areas with the company strategy
