Aberdeen-based e-learning firm Atlas Knowledge has been listed as one of the top 15 highest performers in its sector in the UK.
The Learning and Performance Institute (LPI) compiled the list by assessing companies using eight key performance indicators (KPIs) covering business integrity, delivery capability and personnel development, for example.
For more than 20 years, Atlas has served the learning and compliance needs of standards bodies, regulators and more than 1,700 corporate customers, including six of the top 10 largest energy companies in the world.
Atlas Knowledge provides the online version of the award winning OPITO Minimum Industry Safety Training (MIST) course, which since its launch in 2009, has trained, assessed and validated over 97,000 offshore oil and gas workers across 94 countries, saving the industry an estimated 227,000 training days.
Atlas chief executive Kevin Short said: “In this ever-evolving digital landscape, we have seen the introduction and continued acceptance of digital standards and delivery through eLearning. Learners can now access essential training on the move, wherever they are in the world.
“We’re extremely proud to be selected as a high performing Learning Technology Provider. Now into our 8th year of accreditation, we’ve found the association with LPI very rewarding. As the only LPI provider currently servicing global safety critical industries, we’re appreciative that the unique challenges of operating in this specialist market are being recognised.”
Ken Jones of the LPI said: “In safety-critical industries it is paramount that the highest degree of professionalism is employed in all forms of learning and training. I’m pleased to say, Atlas has continually demonstrated this professionalism and performance in developing and delivering all forms of learning technology.
“Being recognised by the Learning Performance Institute (LPI) in the top 15 is a testament to their dedication. Atlas hasn’t gained this honour lightly, they have been prepared to submit the company to annual audits by the LPI, for the past 8 years, to ensure they meet and maintain the high standard of capability and performance as set out by the institute.
“The LPI is gaining more international recognition and it is becoming essential that learning providers can prove their commitment to quality standards of learning.”
