About Learn to Win
Learn to Win’s mission is to ignite the potential in all learners by transforming how organizations teach.
We are a rapidly growing Series A company (with recent funding) that is dedicated to helping teams learn faster and more effectively. Businesses are constantly launching new products, adapting to competitor moves, and adjusting their operations. Their training needs to keep up.
Our software platform removes the training bottlenecks in organizations. It’s simple for anyone to build a quick lesson - you don’t have to be a tech wiz or a trained instructional designer. Our technology makes it easy for learners to master new concepts in bite-sized chunks, in the flow of work, and on any device.
Hundreds of customers have used Learn to Win to accelerate their training: Air Force pilots drilling on emergency procedures, fast-food chains up-leveling workers on drive-thru management, NFL teams training on playbooks and scouting reports, tech companies onboarding new engineers, and pharmaceutical companies readying sales reps for new product releases.
