Accreditation
Trade-register verified (KvK in NL, CBE in BE, Companies House in UK, equivalent elsewhere). Industry-body credentials cross-checked where present (NOBTRA, CPT, CPLP, ATD, BPS, or sector-specific).
Verified expert network
Experts who arrive knowing your team
Trainers, coaches, and subject-matter specialists: accreditation-checked, outcome-tracked, briefed by data. Inn is not a cold directory; it is the network that makes your LMS feel alive.
What makes an expert Inn-listed
Verification is a high bar, not a checkbox
Experts reach the public directory only after passing three checks. We remove listings that fail post-session assessment improvement over six months.
Outcome record
A minimum baseline of post-session assessment improvement on ten sessions before the profile goes live. Experts with sustained improvement rise automatically in search.
Identity + insurance
Government ID verified. Professional liability insurance confirmed. Right to work in the region where they deliver.
Peer review
ColPort sampled their content + one live session. No self-signalling badges that existing marketplaces hand out to anyone with a credit card.
The pre-session brief
Context that used to require three meetings
24 hours before a booked session, the expert receives a private brief generated from your Hall data. It is the difference between a recycled deck and a tailored session.
What they struggled with
Specific modules, questions, or concepts that failed. Anonymised to team-level, no learner PII ever leaves Hall.
What they excel at
Strengths the expert can build on so the session feels like a level-up, not a remedial catch-up.
Preferred formats
Video vs. reading, interactive vs. lecture, morning vs. afternoon, whatever the assessment data + onboarding questionnaire reveal.
Language + context
The team's dominant working language, their sector's regulatory baseline, and any prior ColPort-delivered sessions with the same group.
For HR buyers
How booking actually works
- Hall detects a gap, or you manually identify one, and opens the Inn panel.
- Three experts surface, ranked by fit, outcome data, and availability. Each card shows their pre-session brief approach and peer-reviewed specialities.
- Your admin picks one. Inn shares the brief (consented), confirms the slot, and drops a calendar invite to everyone.
- Session delivered. Post-assessment fires automatically. The expert’s outcome rating updates based on actual learning gains, not smile sheets.
What experts never do
A short, blunt list of anti-patterns
Pay for placement
No promoted listings. Ranking follows outcome data, not advertising budget.
Pitch you at your session
Inn experts are contracted to teach, not to sell follow-up coaching. Any upsell goes through ColPort.
Share your team's data
Pre-session briefs are anonymised at team-level and deleted 30 days post-session. Experts sign a data-handling clause on every booking.
Ghost after the session
Outcome tracking + follow-up reminders are automatic. Experts who stop engaging with post-session assessment review drop in ranking.
