This = your team
The Product Learning & Enablement team is a close-knit team consisting of PO’s, technical writers, translators, instructional designers, learning specialists and leads. We are passionate about creating high quality content for our customers to make their lives easier. Over the past ten years we have developed a lot of content and have learned a lot about what works well and what doesn't. We therefore continuously investigate whether the way we transfer product knowledge still answers the information needs of our customers.
We are known for our customer focus, creative ideas and smooth collaboration. Asking for help when necessary and offering help when possible is in our DNA.
We work with SCRUM to plan and prioritize our work. Our source language is English, and our translators translate our content into Dutch, Flemish and French.
