13 Jan Accipio Wins Totara Award for Best Education & Training Project 2019

Accipio and EduCare are delighted to announce that their Totara project has won the Best Education & Training Project award in the 2019 Totara Awards. Accipio also had two “Highly Commended” sites for our work with the Department for International Trade and the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing.

Judges Lars Hyland and Senior Learning Strategist Lori Niles-Hofmann selected this year’s winners from the most competitive pool of entries yet. Every year, the Totara Awards recognises the most innovative and successful implementations of Totara, an open source learning management system renowned for its flexibility, cost effectiveness and scalability.

EduCare is one of the largest Totara Learn solutions in the world, and is used by 15 companies across 9 countries, demonstrating the powerful scalability of the platform. This project is a great example of both quantity and quality, with the large-scale, ecommerce-enhanced platform increasing compliance for cultural competency training by 60%. EduCare’s LMS is the product of seven separate instances of platforms being merged into one Totara platform, and 98.5% of users would recommend the system.

Lars Hyland, Chief Learning Officer at Totara, said: “The standard and variety of solutions using the Totara platform continues to rise year on year. These awards are a great way to recognise success, innovation and real business impact. My congratulations to the teams at EduCare and Accipio for their win.”
