Ahead of your data migration and receiving access to Alto, now’s the ideal time to make sure your team completes their Alto training.
The Alto migration experience includes free, self-paced digital learning via Alto Academy. If they haven’t already, all your Alto users will shortly receive a link to access the platform.
What is Alto Academy?
Alto Academy is your go-to platform for free, self-paced training. Whether you're a new starter or an experienced user, it covers all aspects of Alto, from initial setup and getting your first property uploaded, to running your client account or adapting your letter templates.
Alto Academy brings together:
- Bite-sized, skill-based content - short lessons, each taking no more than 3-5 minutes, so you can learn exactly what you need, when you need it, and search for anything, anytime
- Learning pathways - a structured, step-by-step route through the content for your role (Sales, Lettings, Managers, or Accounts), each one a Quickstart Pathway to get you up and running quickly
- Managers have access to easy to read metrics and insights into their team's learning journey and performance. No need for complex reports or manual checks
- Webinar recordings - a growing catalogue of Alto Bitesize sessions you can watch back at any time, with supplementary content alongside each one
- Ask Alto - natural language search that surfaces answers from Alto Academy, the Help Centre, and the Alto website all at once
Other features include personalised suggestions so the content fits you, as well as social features that keep you connected with colleagues and other agencies.
What would I like to learn?
Alto Academy is built around short courses focused on individual skills or processes, so you won't find any long modules you have to complete. Your homepage recommends content based on your role, so it's entirely up to you what you choose to learn.
You can also look for specific content using the search, or via the tabs.
Follow a learning pathway
New to Alto or brushing up? A learning pathway combines short lessons into one structured route for your role, each one a Quickstart Pathway to get you up to speed without picking and choosing where to start. Explore them all on the Alto Academy learning pathways page.
In addition to the above, you also have access to the Alto Help Centre at any time to search for information.
Should you have any queries, you can email us at altoacademy@altosoftware.co.uk.
