SRA Mitra - AI-Powered Employee Training Platform

About the Organization

A large government department with multiple sub-departments, each requiring specialized training and skill development. With thousands of employees across various roles and locations, ensuring consistent training delivery, tracking progress, and maintaining compliance with training requirements was becoming increasingly complex and resource-intensive.

The Challenge

The government department was struggling to provide effective training to their diverse workforce. With multiple portals, varying access requirements, and manual processes, the training system was inefficient and difficult to manage at scale.

Critical Pain Points:

Fragmented Training Systems: Multiple separate portals for different departments causing confusion. Each portal required separate login credentials and navigation. No unified view of employee training across the organization. Course materials scattered across different platforms. Employees unsure which portal to access for their training. IT overhead maintaining multiple disconnected systems.

Access Control Complexity: Different departments needed access to different courses. Manual process to grant and revoke course access. No automatic assignment based on employee department. Security concerns with blanket access to all content. Difficulty managing temporary access for transferred employees. Administrative burden tracking who should access what.

Video Course Management Difficulties: Training content created as video courses similar to Udemy/Udacity format. Hundreds of videos uploaded without organized structure. No way to group videos into cohesive courses. Manual tracking of which videos belong to which course. Version control issues when updating course content. Difficulty organizing content by skill level or topic.

No Learning Support During Videos: Employees watching complex technical or procedural videos. Questions arising during video playback with no immediate help. Had to pause video, email instructor, wait for response. Broke learning flow and reduced comprehension. Many employees gave up when concepts seemed difficult. No way to clarify doubts in real-time during learning.

Progress Tracking Nightmare: No visibility into who’s watching what courses. Cannot track if employees completing assigned training. Manual follow-up required to ensure compliance. No data on time spent learning per employee. Unable to identify employees struggling with courses. Department heads had no insight into team’s skill development.

Certificate Management Burden: Manual certificate creation for course completion. Administrators spending hours designing and issuing certificates. Delay between course completion and certificate receipt. No standardization in certificate format. Difficulty maintaining records of issued certificates. Manual verification when employees claim completion.

Lack of Analytics and Insights: No data on course effectiveness or engagement. Cannot identify which courses need improvement. Unable to see patterns in learning behavior. No reports for management on training ROI. Missing information on knowledge gaps across departments. Decision-making based on guesswork, not data.

Continue Watching Feature Missing: Employees had to remember where they left off in videos. Frustration restarting videos from beginning each time. Lost progress when switching between devices. No bookmarking or progress saving. Reduced completion rates due to inconvenience. Wasted time re-watching already seen content.
