The country’s largest lender State Bank of India (SBI) has
won two Brandon Hall Technology Excellence Awards for its “e-RBC” and
“e-Gyanshala” initiatives that benefit more than 2 lakh employees.
SBI has won these awards in two categories viz. Best Advance
in Technology for Crisis Management for “e-RBC” Initiative and Best Advance in
Social Learning Technology for “e-Gyanshala” Initiative.
Commenting on the occasion, Dinesh Khara, Chairman, SBI
said, “This honour has been bestowed upon SBI in recognition of the technology
initiatives introduced by the Bank towards upskilling and knowledge upgrade of
its employees. In the present challenging circumstances where the COVID-19
pandemic has prevented conduct of regular classroom training at the Bank’s
extensive training network, SBI took the challenge as an opportunity to create
technology driven tools for giving a seamless learning experience to its employees
from anywhere anytime.
As the Banking sector is experiencing constant changes,
fuelled by innovative products & services by Fintechs, new entrants,
resultant growth and evolution of customer expectations, the Bank recognizes
the need to be on its toes and continuously upskill to meet the challenges that
lie ahead.”
SBI developed the e-RBC technology initiative entirely
in-house for online delivery of its Role Based Certifications programs for its
more than 2 Lakh employees, as the physical training programs could not be held
due to travel restrictions and social distancing considerations on account of
COVID-19 pandemic. The e-Gyanshala Initiative is another marquee learning
initiative of SBI, for providing gamified engaging e-learning to its employees,
and a repository of knowledge and a solution to their queries related to day to
day Banking.The Brandon Hall Excellence Awards, also known as the Academy
Awards of Learning & Development, recognize the best organizations that
have successfully deployed programs, strategies, modalities, processes,
systems, and tools to achieve measurable results.
