Share ideas. Build connections. Every 1st Wednesday @ 3 PM.
The Knowledge Network is a digital platform designed specifically for the green industry, transforming how vendors connect with garden centers and their employees. It offers a collection of micro-sites curated with high-quality content from leading industry brands, including educational videos on plants and products, social media feeds, blog posts, and more.
Step 1: View Knowledge Network Channels
View the channels in the Knowledge Network located in your Manager's Portal. These channels of training will be selected by the IGC Owners for the benefit of having their employees learn more about the brands they carry.
Each brand's channel exchanges education/training, social media updates, product updates, and blog posts. These feeds are added to your Vendor Training area as part of the employee's training content.
Step 2: Request Knowledge Channels to Your Site
After viewing your knowledge channel options, use the remote control to submit your request to add your channels by providing your email, garden center name, and desired channels.
Upon confirmation of your request, embedding these knowledge channels will be placed inside your training section of your ConnectSpace™.
Step 2: Add our Knowledge Calendar Too
Additionally, to help streamline access to professional development, we hope to consolidate some key industry training and workshops into a single calendar, The Knowledge Calendar!
By having this calendar, we hope to make it easy for you to discover essential learning opportunities for your team all within your intranet platform.
Step 4: Enjoy the Learning with Your Team
Now you and your employees can enjoy updates from your favorite brands or growers in one place - Your ConnectSpace™! Updates include brand and product news, social updates, blog posts, catalogs, promotions, training/workshops and much more! We believe employees now have the exchange of information that promotes ideas, update knowledge and and overall education.
