Introducing the DriveWorks Digital Suite

Learning & Innovation at DriveWorks

At DriveWorks we are continuously learning and innovating. Our team enjoy sharing ideas and discussing new topics.

With such a wealth of knowledge across our teams, we see the importance of sharing and learning from one another. We are frequently delivering internal training to help develop the skills of our team.

Every Friday we have our weekly Show & Tell, where we get together and share what we have been working on.  Even during the pandemic we have continued with our weekly Show & Tell sessions over Microsoft teams.

It’s not just internal training taking place at the office. Over the years we have welcomed lots of guests from our Reseller AE’s and Customers to deliver training on-site.

The DriveWorks Training Room 

In 2019, we turned one of the buildings at DriveWorks HQ into the ‘Training Room‘.

With lots of training happening onsite, the training room is a great asset.

The extra space gives us more flexibility and offers a new space to use as our team continues to grow.

Fitted with a projection screen, 6 desks and 6 monitors, the training room has provided the perfect space for us to deliver internal training and host guests who visit the site to boost their DriveWorks technical knowledge.

We even have a 3D Printing station set up in the back of the room. We have two 3D printers here at DriveWorks HQ, an Ultimaker and a Formlabs printer.

Adapting to Virtual Events 

Due to the global pandemic, over the past year, all in-person events have been either cancelled or made ‘digital’.

Virtual events are something we’ve adjusted to very quickly. Back in April 2020, we hosted a virtual version of our annual technical training event, DriveWorks World.

Whilst the global situation stopped us from hosting a face to face event, we still wanted to provide an opportunity for DriveWorks users to learn and connect.

We made all of the downloadable content available through the DriveWorks Community and hosted live sessions including a live What’s New presentation sharing the latest features in our next release. 

With plenty more virtual events to come throughout the year such as virtual careers fairs, virtual SWUGN meetings and the introduction of our global networking event, DriveWorks Drivers, we saw just how important it was for us to have the right set up.

We have continued to invest in the best technology that allows us to deliver great content and engaging presentations.

The training room has now picked up a new name… the DriveWorks ‘Digital Suite‘.
