Gone are the days of having to stop in the middle of a task, find “how to” guides, and then pick up where you left off. NetSuite Education Services has rolled out a new learning resource that delivers in-application learning – providing step-by-step guidance embedded in NetSuite to help educate employees about system functionality and features.
NetSuite Guided Learning(opens in new tab) was designed to provide answers at your fingertips; no more stopping your flow of work to find answers from unreliable sources, or worse, trying to decipher hard-to-follow solutions.
"When preparing the NetSuite Guided Learning experience, we focused on streamlining learning for our users," said Chris Meade, senior program manager for NetSuite Education Services. "With this update, we've embedded real-time, contextual guidance within NetSuite for all types of user roles and experience levels. Our aspiration is that with Guided Learning, NetSuite becomes an intuitive companion for continuous learning and growth."
Next-Gen eLearning
In-application learning allows you to learn within NetSuite as the system provides timely guides, step-by-step instructions, and other bite-sized pieces of learning material that evolve with your work.
NetSuite Guided Learning offers contextual, on-demand guidance inside your NetSuite instance for specific tasks and features — like customizing dashboards, working with reports, managing leads or activities through pre-built lists and KPIs, and more.
NetSuite Guided Learning offers:

- Progress tracking. The Guided Learning widget will dynamically display and update your progress based on what you are doing in NetSuite. Steps will automatically be checked off when completed and you can revisit the guides as needed.
