FLORHAM PARK, N.J., Nov. 02, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Conduent Incorporated (Nasdaq: CNDT) today announced that it has won two Brandon Hall Group gold awards for excellence in learning in the categories of Best Use of Performance Support and Best Learning Team.

In the category of Best Use of Performance Support, Conduent received the gold award in partnership with a global life sciences client for work to redesign training for an essential clinical trial documentation system. Working together, Conduent introduced a workflow learning approach that uses performance support to provide the right information at the right time, reducing the forgetting curve created when too much information is provided too early.

The solution accelerated time to proficiency, reduced reliance on subject matter experts, increased adoption and employee satisfaction, while ensuring the training could meet future needs and changes.
