Teams move fast. Employee development should too.
You’re accountable for development outcomes across the whole organization. But the systems meant to help you deliver them weren't built for how work actually happens today.
With Go1 Pay, employees get access to a real professional development budget for the things that actually help them grow. Managers approve what fits, and HR keeps full visibility and control.
Employee growth opportunities shouldn't sit in someone else's inbox
Teams need development that fits what they're working on today – the things that feel relevant to their role, their goals, and help them succeed and grow.
Go1 Pay gives employees a real learning budget to fund the development that fits their goals, while managers provide the guidance and oversight, and HR gets full visibility into every dollar spent, every development decision made, and every skill gap emerging across the organization.
This means structure for HR, speed for managers, and growth for everyone now, not next quarter.
Built for the managers doing the developing, and the HR leaders making it possible.
Books, tools, conferences. If it builds skills, fund it.
Teams don't only learn in an LMS. Give your people a learning stipend that goes beyond courses. Support books, certifications, conferences, and the AI tools they use every day. Think of it as a professional development allowance that actually reflects how people learn today.
Act when it matters (not just when the calendar allows)
Set individual budgets, approve requests in minutes, and guide people toward development that's relevant to what they're working on right now.
No more waiting for the approvals chain
Spot a skills gap on Monday, and the team has what they need by Tuesday without the reimbursement forms or the "is this approved yet?” email chain. Employees don’t have to wait weeks for something that should take minutes.
HR sets the rules. Managers do the work
HR defines budgets, spending criteria, and guardrails. . Employees find and request the development that helps them grow, managers approve, and HR gets full visibility into every development decision, every dollar spent, and every skill gap emerging across the organization, so there are no surprises.*
4 steps to making employee development work across your whole organization
HR sets the parameters
HR creates the professional development stipend parameters, spending policies, and guardrails. Employees access a real development budget, supported and approved by their managers. HR gets full visibility and control from day one.
Your people make their choice
Someone on your team spots a book, a certification, a conference, or an AI tool that will make them better at their job. They request it in minutes, and one click is all it takes for approvals.
You approve the funds. Managers approve the requests.
HR sets the budget and releases the funds. Managers review and approve individual requests within those parameters. No back and forth between teams.
See what your people are learning
Every development request gives HR a real-time view of what employees are spending on and why. Spot emerging skill gaps, and see which tools, topics, and experiences your people are gravitating toward. Then, use that data to build smarter, more relevant learning programs across the whole organization.
You focus on your people. Go1 Pay handles the rest.
You don't always have time to track every development need, or every opportunity your people should be taking. That's where Go1 Pay comes in.
Go1 brings together insights on your people's skills, goals, and role requirements to recommend the right online learning. Go1 Pay takes it further, giving employees a professional development budget to fund the offline experiences that complement that learning.
