We're happy to announce that Single Sign-On (SSO) is now available for Catalyst™ learners!

What is SSO?

SSO is a time-saving and secure authentication process that simplifies the user experience by allowing access to multiple applications with a single username and password. The Catalyst platform now supports SSO through two protocols: OpenID Connect (OIDC) and SAML 2.0.

How does it work?

Once SSO is enabled, learners simply enter their email address on the Catalyst login page. No password is required - login credentials are managed by the learner's organisation.

For a one off fee the Catalyst Practitioner Experience gives you access to :

Ready-to-Use Facilitation Materials : Access slide decks, scripts, and videos—all searchable and customisable to save prep time.

Real-Time Learner & Group Insights : View learner results in Catalyst and generate unlimited reports—deliver training tailored to each unique group for maximum impact.

Ongoing Training : Leverage the Everything DiSC® Foundations course and other training resources to keep your DiSC knowledge sharp—build confidence and advance your facilitation skills.

Access to a Community of Practitioners : Connect with like-minded individuals to learn, grow, and hone your skills—get peer support and solve challenges together.

Below is a brochure and full user guide on how to get started.

Worksmart is a series of modules that sit within Catalyst aimed at supporting managers who are stretched thin - expected to give feedback, resolve conflict, motivate teams, and navigate constant change -often without any real training on how to do so effectively.

Worksmart includes targeted manager modules that are delivered in under an hour, helping managers turn DiSC® insights into real-world action they can use immediately with their teams. They can be used as part of a facilitated learning experience or, coming soon, as self-paced individual learning modules.

Preview a live module experience, explore the action planning tool, and discover how to equip your managers with the people skills they need to lead effectively, by watching the webinar recording at the link below.

Wiley have just launched a new Help Centre, primarily for EPIC account holders (but there is useful info for everyone).

It is available at the links below and also from the bottom right corner of your EPIC account.

Everything DiSC Help Centre

Five Behaviours Help Centre

Catalyst has been specifically designed to help organisations embed their DiSC knowledge in to their everyday working - providing a platform that supports a 'return and learn' culture rather than simply a one off training intervention.

Keeping it alive is always easier said than done! It does take effort and continual reinforcement.

Attached is a handout containing some ideas about how you can support the ongoing use of Catalyst and help achieve a good return on your investment.
