She then moved back to LinkedIn where she has been for four years now. Prior to moving into tech, Ms. Gaffney worked at McKinsey and Gap Inc, after attending Princeton University and Harvard Business School.

Throughout her career in the tech industry, Ms.Gaffney has led products which have helped democratize access to creation, unlocking the ability for anyone to share their knowledge.

Ms. Gaffney is joining the board at an inflexion point for 360Learning.

Caroline Gaffney, Board Member at 360Learning, said: “I’m excited to join such an impressive team during a time when the training needs of companies and their employees are changing rapidly. Throughout my career, I’ve been excited about how technology products can transform experiences and solve real user needs. 360Learning is doing this by innovating in the corporate learning market. Instead of traditional enterprise software and courses, 360Learning’s platform helps make learning more accessible and enables people within an organization to unlock their knowledge in a simple, intuitive way.”
