POMPANO BEACH, Fla.—Last year, in June 2022, Swiss Navy created a comprehensive online certification course to help provide retail associates with valuable knowledge and a path to certification as an expert in their field in honor of National Adult Sex Education Month. Over the past year, hundreds of retail staff members have completed the Swiss Navy Certified Expert program.
Said ACS, M.D. Science Lab’s vice president of sales and marketing Briana Watkins, "We understand the concerns that retailers have, many of which are struggling with the demands of constantly training and retraining their staff and our certification program has been an incredible success for our customer-partners."
The online Swiss Navy Certified Expert certification course is self-paced and can be accessed on multiple devices at any day and time to fit into retail staff schedules.
M.D. Science Lab director of brand development Dr. Sunny Rodgers said, "Over the past year we’ve certified hundreds of retail staff members. We understand how information in our industry is constantly expanding and evolving, which can make it difficult for retailers to keep training current and comprehensive."
The multi-module course covers everything from types of consumable goods to in-depth knowledge of uses and solutions and is peppered with "Did You Know" tidbits to help initiate conversations with consumers. The course was created in a bite-sized format so that retail staff can easily navigate their way to certification on any time schedule.
Added Rodgers, "Our Swiss Navy Certified Expert program has provided an ongoing education for staff members to help them be better prepared and more valuable for retailers. It’s important to take time during the month of June and remember the overall importance of sex education, and we’re particularly proud of this training platform that we’ve been able to build and share."
Some graduates reported that they appreciate knowing more about ingredients and how they may affect a consumer’s body. And almost all course participants agree that the knowledge they’ve learned will help them be better at working with consumers on a daily basis.
Upon successfully completing all ten modules in the course, the staff member will receive a certificate of completion announcing them as a Swiss Navy Certified Expert.
