SweetRush Wins Eight Learning Awards for Leadership Training

SweetRush’s custom leadership training programs, created in collaboration with SHRM and AACN, teach new people managers the skills and behaviors they need to succeed in their new roles.

San Francisco, Calif., January 12, 2022 — SweetRush, a leading provider of custom learning solutions, earned eight learning and creative awards for its collaborations with clients on leadership training. These programs were developed with prestigious industry associations that  have outstanding reach in their respective fields.

For its partnership with the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) on the SHRM People Manager Qualification (PMQ), SweetRush has won six awards, including four Gold awards from the Brandon Hall Group, the Hermes Creative Awards, the Muse Creative Awards, and the Horizon Interactive Awards.

SHRM’s PMQ is a 10+ hour self-paced learning qualification program for new people managers. The program breaks the mold of traditional eLearning with “binge-worthy” storytelling and compelling, diverse characters in an episodic format, along with gamification elements. Learners work through scenarios that are authentic and relevant to the challenges in their new roles throughout the program, including dynamic behavioral assessments.

For the Fundamentals Skills for Nurse Managers learning program, created in collaboration with the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN), SweetRush won two Gold awards from the Brandon Hall Group, including Best Advance in Leadership Development.

This program includes up to 14 hours of interactive, case-based content application, including scenarios featuring live video and a diverse cast of characters. For new nurse managers making the challenging transition from nurse to manager, it helps them during this first year as they develop confidence and learn critical leadership skills, including technical skills such as managing a budget.

“There is a real challenge when the need is to put forth substantive in-depth information in a way that is engaging and motivates learners to completion. It’s a worthy challenge we greatly enjoy and are proud to have collaborated with both SHRM and AACN on these award-winning leadership training programs,” said Arturo Schwartzberg, SweetRush Cofounder and Chairman.
