Synchrony, a consumer financing company based in Stamford, Connecticut, announced the launch of the Synchrony Small Business Learning Center, a new digital learning platform designed to help Synchrony's small business partners operate and grow their businesses more efficiently and effectively.

The platform will help Synchrony small merchants, dealers, and wellness providers learn how credit and financing works, incorporate it into their business model, leverage it to enhance customer experiences, and help drive sales.

The Small Business Learning Center will offer:

  • Dozens of industry-specific courses, videos, games, interactive experiences, and other contemporary learning modalities help small business owners and their teams learn in their preferred way, at their own pace.
  • Topics including sales techniques, compliance, motivating employees, cash flow, vendor management, and customer service.
  • Content created by Synchrony learning experts, utilizing the expertise of Synchrony professionals and leaders. New content, courses and tools are added and refreshed regularly, to keep learning interesting and engaging. Synchrony regularly partners with top learning technology companies to ensure Synchrony small businesses can experience the newest learning tools available.
  • User-friendly dashboard displays priority content, as well as curated content recommendations.
  • A new countdown clock feature, specifically for merchants and dealers, provide a visual reminder of when priority or required courses are due.
  • Simple links to a full content library, letting learners see all courses available, and choose their topics and their pace to complete them.

Additionally, small merchants and dealers can access the Learning Center via Business Center, Synchrony's powerful online business platform. All Synchrony partner financing activities, from processing applications to transacting sales, and access to Learning Center, are now consolidated into a single location, helping merchants save time. Synchrony health and wellness partners will continue to access Learning Center via Provider Center.
