The modern workplace doesn’t have the patience for bloated training manuals—or the budget for endless in-person sessions. That’s the premise behind a new partnership between Datalink Networks, a nationally recognized Managed Service Provider, and Clip Training, an e-learning platform built for quick, high-impact knowledge delivery.
The collaboration aims to help small and mid-sized businesses, healthcare providers, and educational institutions boost productivity, maintain compliance, and improve digital literacy through short, searchable training videos accessible anytime, anywhere.
From IT Support to Self-Service Learning
Datalink Networks is best known for its managed services, cybersecurity expertise, and cloud solutions. Clip Training, meanwhile, specializes in concise tutorials on Microsoft 365, cybersecurity, and other essential business tools.
Paired together, the companies are promising a streamlined rollout: Datalink handles deployment, integration, and ongoing support, while Clip Training’s bite-sized modules ensure employees can find answers fast—without submitting a help desk ticket.
Why This Partnership Matters Now
The timing makes sense. As more organizations migrate to cloud-based work environments, technology adoption is often the bottleneck. Misused tools like Teams or Outlook can slow productivity and create security vulnerabilities.
The combined offering tackles that head-on:
-
Accelerated onboarding for Microsoft 365 and other platforms
-
Compliance-ready training aligned with HIPAA, FERPA, and NIST CSF 2.0
-
Real-time analytics to track learning engagement and close skill gaps
It’s also a play for cost-conscious training: replacing full-day seminars with on-demand videos keeps budgets lean while maintaining flexibility.
The Bigger Picture
The move reflects a larger trend in enterprise learning: the shift from static, annual training sessions to continuous, microlearning models. Gartner and other analysts have noted that short-form, context-driven lessons are more likely to be retained—and more likely to be completed—than traditional long-form training.
For Datalink Networks, adding Clip Training to its service stack positions it against other MSPs offering bundled IT support and e-learning, while giving clients a tangible way to measure technology adoption success.
In other words, it’s not just about keeping the lights on—it’s about making sure employees know how to use the switches.
