What’s in
Croma’s learning app, Base Station?
Base
Station is a tool to impart learning and communicate with the staff, and also
to engage and assess the employees. The frontline employees of any
retail company are in direct connect with the customers. This is also why these
employees need to be updated on the frequently-changing products and the
offerings in real time. Now to keep the frontline staff updated on the latest
products and offerings, Tata Croma or Infinity Retail, created an application
called Base Station. “The app was developed two years back for employees’
communication, training, certification programmes, and for solving queries as
well. It’s the only means of connect between the employees and the Company,”
shares Joe Chacko, chief HR and Organisational Learning, Croma.
