52 With a commitment to ensuring global accessibility and inclusivity, TED@Work recognized the importance of providing translated content for learners around the world. With their network of 30,000 translators, they are able to add translated subtitles to every TED Talk. This collaborative effort with Simon allowed TED@Work to create localized courses to support multinational organizations and support learners worldwide, fostering engagement and knowledge transfer across diverse audiences. "With Simon, we can feed one course into an organization's learning platform, and if an employee is located in France, they will automatically see the course's subtitles in French. If an employee launches a course in Japan, they will automatically see the subtitles in Japanese and so on," says Winn. TED@Work is committed to providing inclusive learning experiences and understands the importance of providing accessible courses. "Simon hits all of the accessibility requirements we needed," said Winn . Additionally, Simon's user-friendly video player is optimized for mobile devices ensuring that learners can access courses anywhere and on any device. Simon's intuitive interface and modern design aligned perfectly with TED@Work's commitment to exceptional user experiences. "The D in TED stands for design. We have a high bar for the user experience," said Winn. Simon's clean and user-friendly navigation allows learners to easily go through the course, jump to specific sections, and access relevant documents. With Simon, TED@ Work can deliver a web-based learning experience that meets the high standards of a TED-branded product. Customization options offered by Simon played a pivotal role in enabling TED@Work to infuse their unique brand identity into the learning experiences. With the ability to incorporate their logo prominently and integrate custom animations and transitions, each course became a true reflection of the TED@Work brand. By adding their own personal touch, TED@Work further solidified their brand presence and established a consistent learning environment across courses. As a result of this engaging experience, TED@Work has an average course completion rate of 80% for its video-based courses, confirming that offering a best-in-class learning experience is key to driving learner engagement and results.
