Softway reimagines virtual D&I training with Seneca Hue℠--an all-new web-based diversity and inclusion learning program
Launching in beta during 2020's Global Diversity Month, Seneca Hue℠ is a digital diversity and inclusion program for a modern workforce.
HOUSTON, Oct. 9, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The team at Softway, a digital transformation agency in Houston, TX, is proud to announce a game-changing product for companies of all sizes looking for new ways to bring diversity, equity, and inclusion training to their workforce. The new product—Seneca Hue℠—is a browser-based learning and training application that weaves together modern storytelling with relevant D&I topics in a powerful new way.
During the Seneca Hue℠ beta release this October, the product will offer three modules crafted around dimensions of diversity that are currently in-demand. The three dimensions of diversity within Seneca Hue℠: race/ethnicity, caregivers/parents, and socioeconomic status—are brought to life through a variety of multi-media content options including video, audio, blogs, podcasts, quizzes, and micro-commitments.
"Nothing about Seneca Hue is boring, cold, or punitive," said Mohammad Anwar, CEO of Softway. "Not only are most D&I learning programs extremely outdated, but they're typically built solely for compliance reasons. Seneca Hue is the opposite. It's not clinical, but empathetic and growth-oriented. The content we've created to tackle essential D&I subjects is built from lived experiences. It's D&I training for your workforce today, not 1998."
According to Anwar, Seneca Hue℠ will constantly expand, with more content being added every few weeks. Seneca Hue℠ is 100% digital and accessible by any device, whether personally or company-owned. The content is delivered based on the user's behavior and learning style, allowing for a more personalized experience within complex and sensitive topics.
"Seneca Hue is edutainment rooted in science," said Chris Pitre, VP at Softway. "Combining both education and entertainment, we base the learner's journey and our content around a scientifically proven and objective standard for assessing cultural competence. But do so in a way that's captivating to a digital-first audience. Our tool and content can align with your learning management methods and systems for measurable growth."
To that end, the Seneca Hue℠ learning program is designed to challenge through action and engagement, not standardized testing. For adult learners, Softway developed innovative ways to assess growth and development within D&I topics, delivering measurable outcomes to common D&I goals and commitments. Pitre says that Softway is committed to making Seneca Hue℠ into "Sesame Street for D&I".
Softway has opened a waitlist for companies interested in trying Seneca Hue℠ while the product is still in its limited-beta release. To RSVP for the Seneca Hue℠ beta waitlist, use the url below:
