1. You Can Customize Your Sub Policy and Process

With COVID-19 and the holiday season upon us, it’s important to get ahead of your staff requesting time off.  Nobody wants to stress out about having to find last minute subs or no-shows, causing the manager to step away to teach the class! NetGym enables you to customize and automate your sub request flow to fit your unique sub policy needs. This includes when sub requests can be sent, specific approval permissions, and account setup to ensure maximum visibility across urgent time off requests.

1. Analyze Staff Behavior

Understand all staff sub behavior and also their responsiveness so you can reward them! Use NetGym’s insights data for instructor evaluations and engagement opportunities. See who is subbing and how often, who is sending urgent requests and how often, and who is picking up classes and being a team player.

“Prior to NetGym, we paid someone a full-time salary to handle sub requests for 6 studios. It was not timely, nor cost effective. NetGym has simplified our sub requests by allowing instructors to pick up subs that work with their schedules and then changing the schedule in Mariana Tek pending our manager approval. We have also included NetGym analytics in our annual performance reviews by using their Insights to track how often they are requesting and picking up sub requests. NetGym has been a game changer for our company!!”

Jill Y., Instructor Manager @ Grit Cycle

“After implementing NetGym for our sub-requests, we’re saving hours per week on our scheduling needs. Even more helpful: being able to track metrics around subs, so we can make data-informed decisions to best drive our team’s needs.“

Nick R, Recruiting & Instructor Operations Manager @ SLT

“NetGym allowed us to streamline and automate around our existing sub request scheduling process. Instead of an instructor sending out a text or trying to find a sub manually, they are able to log into a simple mobile app which already knows their schedule and asks for the reason. From there, the workflow allows for approval and automatically updates the instructor in Mariana Tek. Sub metrics are tracked and reportable which is super valuable. This tool has saved us so much time all around. Highly recommend NetGym!”
