Unit-IT, a Danish IT services provider, specializes in delivering comprehensive and tailored technology solutions to businesses with complex IT needs. Continuous improvement is a core value of their company, always striving for excellence. It’s embedded in anything from their employee qualifications and operational efficiency to their partnerships and customer service. At Unit-IT, continuous learning is encouraged at every level. As the leadership team explains, “We don’t want to limit people from learning if they want to learn.” This philosophy drives the company’s approach to employee development and training.

Training for personal and corporate advancement

With Readynez’ Unlimited Training, employees now have access to a variety of resources, allowing them to grow in areas aligned with their personal interests and the company's evolving needs. “We believe taking courses does not always need to result in a certification. After all, courses provide both our consultants and the company with the best foundation for success,” says Anel Habibovic, Cloud Unit Director at Unit-IT.

As an IT company, Unit-IT is well aware of the need to stay ahead to avoid being left behind the competition. It’s more than having a competitive product or service: it’s about the value employees are able to bring to the organization and the customers. The knowledge and skills of Unit-IT’s employees are foundational for providing value to customers. Thus, they pursue training not only for market relevance but also to empower employees to develop competencies that align with both personal interests and the company’s value proposition.

The IT industry is a fast-developing industry, launching technological advancements continuously. And one way Unit-IT addresses this challenge is through continuous learning. “People expect things to develop and improve. When our customers are ready for it, we are prepared to educate ourselves on the topic.” This is emphasized by the fact that Unit-IT has developed education plans for each of their consultants. Every month Anel Habibovic dedicates time to review the plans with each employee to ensure they receive the necessary training to perform their work to the best of their ability. 

Easy financial management

For the past few years, Unit-IT has purchased several Unlimited Training licenses, providing access to a wide range of Microsoft courses at no additional costs during the active subscription year. This simplifies the process for the manager to oversee. With these license keys, managers can easily assign them to employees in need of training, without worrying about extra expenses. Whenever additional training is needed - whether that’s due to new market developments, an interest from the employee’s perspective or qualificative gaps - Unit-IT can grant their employees a learning opportunity without financial complications.

“Previously, each course would cost 20-30,000 DKK, automatically limiting the number of consultants who could acquire the necessary knowledge. Now, financial concerns are no longer an issue, as the costs have already been covered. If a consultant needs to attend 3-4 courses a year, then that’s what we do.” This approach enables both new and current consultants at Unit-IT to catch up, excel, and deliver the best service possible to customers.

Quality training

However, enrolling employees in different courses is one thing; ensuring employees receive quality training is another. Unit-IT had experienced several instances where training didn’t meet their high standards. “It’s important that the instructors deliver high quality education. It can make or break the entire experience.” Historically, on more than one occasion, Anel found that after completing a course, he didn’t feel confident enough to take the corresponding exam. “Eventually, you postpone the exam until you forget everything you learned and need to retake the course…”

There was a clear need for quality training to meet the organization’s objectives and support individual employees. With Readynez, they were able to find instructors dedicated to the success of their course delegates. These instructors provide personalized feedback, engage employees with real-world examples, and foster an environment where employees feel empowered to ask questions and dive deeper into the material. Unit-IT’s employees are not only gaining the knowledge they need but also the confidence to apply it in their daily work.

Conclusion

In conclusion, Unit-IT’s partnership with Readynez has empowered the company to maintain its competitive edge by focusing on continuous learning and quality training. With the flexibility of Unlimited Training, Unit-IT is not only equipping its team with essential skills but also fostering an environment where employees are encouraged to grow according to their personal and professional aspirations, at a low and predictable cost. This commitment to ongoing education ensures that Unit-IT is always prepared to meet evolving market demands and deliver exceptional service to its clients.
