Employee Navigator (EN) is excited to announce early availability of their platform for Ease brokers interested in using EN for the open enrollment season this fall, before the full migration in 2024. While most brokers will continue to add new customers to Ease and will plan to migrate existing customers to the EN platform next summer, Employee Navigator wants to accommodate brokers who would like to begin using the EN platform now.
The training sessions will help you get a firsthand look at some basic highlights of the licensing program. All users will be required to attend an online or in-person training and complete the independent, self-paced lessons prior to these trainings. Additional training sessions will be added as needed. Remote training is anticipated to take approximately 10 hours.
Online Training Dates and Times
In-Person Training Dates and Times
Onsite 2 days (9 classroom hours + optional 4-hour lab). In-person training is limited to 100 attendees. There is a $25 processing fee for each participant. Register.
*Optional time available for individual coaching while building a group.
Employee Navigator has not begun adding Ease features to the EN platform, so some familiar features will not be available to early adopters until 2024. Therefore, it’s recommended that EN be primarily used for new groups. Key features to be added to EN include:
Additional features to be added by next summer include:
Employee Navigator’s robust infrastructure supports over 75,000+ companies and 10+ million members. They are focused on providing training to smoothly onboard brokers. Attending training and completing self-paced lessons is required prior to access.
The Employee Navigator Knowledge Base is available to post questions and view responses.
