Introduction to widgets

Widgets are an excellent starting point to monitor learning effectiveness and stay informed about employee or student experience, as well as identify areas that require attention. They offer a variety of filtering options, allowing you to tailor the results to the topics and areas that are of greatest interest to you. This strategic approach streamlines the decision-making process, enabling you to swiftly and effectively determine the best course of action.
