Description

Tilly has to learn ways to train Splodge to be more obedient and listen or she is worried her parents will get rid of him. This acquisition, in conjunction with the recent acquisition of Riliance, will establish the Access Digital Learning & Compliance Division and further enhances the portfolio of solutions available to all customers through Access Workspace. The addition of online training, compliance and risk management to the suite will extend connected and collaborative working to even more departments of a business, from sales, finance, HR, IT, manufacturing and logistics to, Access customers to do more of what’s important to them, all in one place. Unicorns are big this year, maybe they're big every year and it's just that this year I have a horse-mad-turned-unicorn-and-pegasus-mad daughter. Whatever the reason for the fascination with unicorns my daughter thought this book was the "Best story ever!" - so if you have a unicorn-obsessed child aged five then you should pop this book on your Christmas shopping list now! We see Access as the perfect home for our customers, solutions and people. They are fully committed to help us further develop the depth and breadth of our solutions and content library which will make an excellent addition to the Access Workspace suite. We are all committed to making Access the company of choice for Digital Learning across multiple industries. With a market leading suite of solutions, comprehensive content library and a rapidly growing market, we see the future with Access significantly enhancing our leadership position in this space.”

Digital Learning is a rapidly growing market with Europe alone expected to see a CAGR of approximately 15% between now and 2023. The UK holds an impressive share of this market, which is why we have moved to make these solutions part of Access Workspace. We know many of our existing and future clients are coming under increased pressure for training, risk management and compliance, driven by increasing legislation and regulation in their industries. By offering Digital Learning through the same platform as people use to do their job every day we believe that uptake will increase and monitoring adherence and completion will become simpler and more cost effective.”Its heart warming, fun, cheeky, and very endearing. I will definitely recommend reading it, it would make a wonderful present.

What I loved about this book was that Tilly refused to give up even when things got tough. It Teaches children how important it is to care for all aspects of raising a pet, not just the fun bits. It Teaches responsibility and perseverance. That patience pays off eventually. Tilly works at a Unicorn Rescue Centre, but she wants a unicorn of her own. She gets her wish when the spunky Splodge comes to the center, and Tilly vows to make him the “best unicorn ever.” Peter Phillips, Unicorn CEO, said: “Craig was again recently voted the most influential person in the corporate eLearning sector and he has a unique in-depth knowledge of the global LMS market and products. He is fiercely independent in his judgment, which is why his Top 50 report is so highly regarded in the industry. We are very proud to be ranked the Number One LMS for the financial sector for the second year running. We have an exciting roadmap of developments for 2016 as we do our best to retain the coveted top FS spot for the third successive year.”

I have a major unicorn lover in my house, so I was very excited to review this book. I love the idea of Tilly trying to train the unicorn in the same way that we've been working on training our puppy. I know my daughter, and many other unicorn lovers, will adore this book with the cute illustrations and concept of a unicorn as a pet. I appreciate the idea that Tilly chose a unicorn that wasn't "perfect" and loved him anyway. I also enjoyed that Splodge improved his behavior and became a better pupil as he got more used to the family. Training a pet definitely is not easy, it takes time and dedication and this way effectively communicated in this book.

Unicorn will be celebrating the release of the report at the Learning Technologies conference and exhibition at Olympia next week (3-4 February), where they will be on Stand P14 as well as hosting a games-themed coffee shop. No one said looking after a pet is easy and Splodge is mischievous, cheeky, full of energy, fun, and a zest for adventure. Unicorn Training is about the responsibility of pet ownership. Really, the animal could be everything (in fact, if you switch the unicorn out for a dog, the story still works). Tilly does everything she can to try to turn Splodge into the perfect pet. But it takes perseverance and patience (and a lot of treats) to make this happen.If your little one loves horses, pets, or especially unicorns, this one will probably be a hit. For others, I’d still say it’s worth a read, especially for the illustrations. This is a perfect book for anyone. The unicorn is a boy and the main character is a girl, giving a nice gender balance. The main message is a great one and the book even has a nice guide at the end to spark conversation afterward. Another much-needed but sometimes overlooked unicorn skill is business competency. This concept is certainly not new. Thomas John Watson Jr., the CEO of IBM in the 50s, believed that “Good design is good business.” Of course, the idea here is not to fully take over the PM’s job or to blindly execute the visions instructed by your business counterparts. Instead, the value here is to truly understand business intentions and be able to create alignment between the business and users.

Traditionally, a unicorn is a designer who codes. But that definition has blurred as the tech field has evolved because the skills that a designer has to learn kept growing every few years. Copy writing is one example. In John Maeda’s 2017 Design in Tech Report, he argues that “code is not the only unicorn skill.” He further stated that on top of coding, designers need to know verbal design and utilize words and content in the design. Tilly helps out at her local Unicorn Rescue Sanctuary and she loves the unicorns so much she wishes she could rescue one herself.

Unicorn Training’s SkillsServe learning and performance platform has been ranked as the World’s top LMS for financial services for the second year running in the annual Top 50 LMSs Report 2016 it has been revealed.

Schwinn provide top quality unicorn bikes for children. The Schwinn company was established in 1895, by Ignaz Schwinn in Chicago, and is well known for creating iconic bikes. Schwinn as a company pride themselves of making it possible for riders of all ages to experience the thrill of riding a bicycle. Children and adults around the world trust the Schwinn name for quality and value. The joys of learning to ride for the first time, sharing an excursion with friends, proudly completing a new training regime or enjoying a local scenic route are all best enjoyed on a Schwinn. First of all I want to start by saying I absolutely LOVE the eye catching, bright and colourful illustrations, it really bought this heart warming story to life! This story is really about the ups and downs of owning a pet, especially when it first arrives. Having recently adopted two kittens into our horse I could actually relate to a lot of this despite having owned animals before! From a storytelling perspective, the book is forced to rush due to the constraints of being a short picture book. I love these types of stories, but I think they work better as early readers and early chapter books like Maggie and Bramble or Cowgirl Kate and Cocoa (though neither of those feature a unicorn!).
