Goodwill®U

Changing Lives through the Power of Work

Proven to Align Workforce Development, Donated Goods Revenue Results & Leadership Development while Raising Retention Rates and Increasing Sales

Goodwill®U was designed with the objective to provide consistent training across the Goodwill movement and streamline the associate learning and development process. It more quickly increases both functional and soft skills and imparts confidence to perform all daily job tasks.

Additionally, management benefit goals were met with the ability to easily assign training, automate workflows and measure results. Success was achieved incorporating existing Manasota elearning content into Reflection Software’s LMS engine, Cognition.

“Building a strong learning culture is foundational to producing world-class results.”
