In today's fast-paced world, continuous learning isn't just a nice-to-have; it's essential for success. Keeping your team's skills sharp ensures you're getting the most value out of your investment. But what's the best way to approach training? 

Let's explore two fantastic ways to get access to training on Identity University: Training Subscription and Training Passes; and how, together, they create the perfect learning strategy for your organization. 

Training subscription: foundation for continuous growth  

With a training subscription, your team gets unlimited access to the full Identity University on-demand library; a comprehensive, long-term training solution. With access to our entire library of all on-demand courses and knowledge credentials, you can ensure your team has the skills they need, whenever they need them. 

Subscriptions come with volume and term discounts, making it the best choice for providing training that fits the needs of your entire team. Updated quarterly, Identity University training keeps pace with product innovation, so your team’s skills are always relevant and ready for what’s next. 

A subscription is a strategic investment in your team's success. It's ideal for organizations that aim to build a culture of learning and want the ability to monitor their team’s learning progress: 

  • Centralized management: A dedicated Training Administrator can easily manage, assign, and even re-assign access to users; giving you full control to ensure each learner has access to the courses they need, when they need them. 
  • Strategic upskilling: With visibility into learner progress, included all courses, credentials, and certifications each learner has completed, dedicated Training Administrators can guide their team's development and ensure they are mastering the skills necessary to increase competency and ensure efficiency. 

Training pass: ticket to specific skills 

Purchasable for 1-, 3-, or 12-months, a Training Pass is a flexible, short-term ticket that grants individual access to the same rich library of content as a subscription, but for a shorter duration of time. 

Whether it’s taking a select few courses to learn a specific skill or completing a learning path to prepare for a new project, training passes provide immediate access to Identity University for individual learners who are not currently assigned a training subscription. 

Training passes provide flexibility to individual learners so they can get up to speed on new topics and areas with ease: 

  • Immediate access: Purchased with a credit card, a training pass gives you instant access to start learning right away 
  • Focused learning: It's the perfect tool for when you need to acquire a new skill or revisit a topic, without a long-term commitment 

How training passes complement your training subscription 

A training pass is the perfect partner to a training subscription. While the subscription serves as the backbone for your organization's learning strategy, the pass provides the flexibility to fill in the gaps.

Together, they work together beautifully: 

  • Training for Contractors: Need to get a temporary team member trained on identity security best practices? A 3-month or 1-year pass is a perfect, time-bound solution. 
  • Cross-Departmental Skill Building: Does a team member on another team need to understand a technical concept but doesn't require a full subscription? A 1-month or 3-month pass is an easy and cost-effective way to give them instant access to the knowledge they need. 
  • Onboarding New Hires: Have a new team member starting mid-year? Get them up to speed immediately with a 3-month or 1-year pass while you wait for the annual subscription renewal. 

By using both, you create a comprehensive and agile training program that meets the needs of every single person in your organization, right when they need it most. 

Get access to Identity University today. Purchasing a training pass gives you immediate access to all on-demand training available across Identity University. Whether you are planning on expanding upon your current training subscription or looking to provide access to select individuals prior to re-assigning subscription seats, purchasing a training pass today means your team doesn’t have to wait for access to Identity University.
