Best-in-class LMS platforms for training companies
Education and Training Companies
At the heart of everything you do is your learners and providing them with an engaging and positive training experience is always the number one priority.
During the pandemic, there was a seismic shift towards online learning and training, and while the traditional classroom remains an important component of training delivery, organisations are increasingly needing to offer an immersive and positive experience for people training remotely.
That’s where an investment in an affordable and reliable learning management system (LMS) can make all the difference.

An LMS can support your move from classroom to online learning
An LMS can provide a scalable platform which can grow along with your organisation, and we have previously supported organisations with upwards of 500K LMS users.
One of the biggest dilemmas for training providers and learning organisations is choosing a suitable LMS for their needs. With so much choice available, it can sometimes feel overwhelming selecting the most appropriate platform to serve your learners.
We are multi-award-winning digital experts in Moodle and Totara — two of the most popular open-source learning platforms on the planet. Moodle has well over 200 million users worldwide.
We are among a small and highly prestigious number of Moodle and Totara strategic delivery partners and over the years, some of the world’s biggest brands, including PepsiCo and the NHS, have entrusted us to deliver their learning platforms, e-learning materials, and employee training.
Unlock lucrative new revenue streams
Many training providers want to monetise their existing courses and learning materials, and an LMS is the perfect solution.
We support organisations, end-to-end, to transform their learning platforms, allowing them to sell their courses, content, and services directly to customers via their LMS.
And for training organisations with existing ecommerce solutions, that are no longer fit for purpose, we can help you to migrate across to a world-leading native solution that will eliminate expensive third-party integrations, unreliable workarounds, and repetitive administrative processes.
Moodle and Totara are open-source platforms, which allows developers from around the world to contribute code and build intuitive new features, and our very own Digital team have created the ultimate ecommerce plugin to help training providers unlock lucrative new revenue streams.
‘Accipio One’ is our specialist plugin eco-system that extends Moodle and Totara and takes them to the next level. Our customers gain access to hundreds of additional features which are always evolving to address the real-world problems our clients face. This includes Accipio Shop – the world’s most advanced native shop for Moodle and Totara.
No need for additional integrations, separate websites, or brand matching. Accipio Shop seamlessly integrates within your existing Moodle or Totara site, effortlessly handling single or recurring payments.
A learning experience that’s best-in-class
Your learners need an LMS that allows them to find all your digital materials and assessment tools quickly and efficiently.
Moodle and Totara can host engaging SCORM-compliant course content, including videos, animations, quizzes, and much more, and the user experience and user interfaces are intuitively designed, helping your people navigate to what they need.
All our clients benefit from the latest versions of Totara and Moodle, which come complete with a host of new and intuitive features designed to support learning collaboration and delivery.
Users can access your LMS across desktop, mobile, and tablet, allowing them to study at home, work, or even on the go.
All-in-one apprenticeship and qualification solution
Many training providers have become frustrated with requiring multiple platforms to deliver their apprenticeship offerings, leading to higher costs, increased maintenance requirements, and a lack of system infrastructure cohesion.
Training providers often have separate LMS and e-Portfolio platforms to deliver their qualifications, which can become costly, but with Accipio One, our award-winning Digital team have created an all-in-one solution – Accipio Apprenticeship Management System (AMS) – bringing the best parts of an e-Portfolio directly into your LMS.
With Accipio AMS, training providers can enjoy the benefits of workshop management (self-bookable), automation, tenancies, and custom pathways. Coaches and trainers can maintain contact logs, including formal progress reviews and workshop attendance.
In-built AI features provide 360 diagnostic skill scanning, with Individual Learning Plan (ILP) generation based on the strengths and weaknesses of learners.
Training companies can construct and administer multiple programmes, qualifications, and apprenticeship standards with the qualification builder tool, organising learner relationships with their coaches and employers.
Assessment and reporting are simple too. Administrators can access detailed reports and even export showcase portfolios for EPA (End-Point Assessment), along with the ability to perform in-depth gap analyses.

What are the top reasons a training provider needs an LMS platform?
Training delivery: Digitalising your course materials allows you to train your people online, providing an engaging and immersive learning experience to compliment traditional classroom delivery.
New revenue streams: An LMS platform allows training providers to sell their courses, content, and services directly to customers through an LMS shopfront. No need for additional integrations, separate websites, or brand matching. Our Accipio Shop plugin seamlessly integrates within your existing Moodle or Totara site, effortlessly handling single or recurring payments.
All-in-one apprenticeship delivery: Many training providers rely on multiple systems, including e-Portfolios, to deliver their apprenticeship training programmes. This can lead to high recurring costs and increased maintenance requirements. With an LMS, powered by Accipio Apprenticeship Management System, training providers can move towards an all-in-one solution via their LMS. Training companies can construct and administer multiple programmes, qualifications, and apprenticeship standards with the qualification builder tool, organising learner relationships with their coaches and employers.
Knowledge is power: Assessment and reporting are simple. Training providers can access detailed reports within their LMS and even export showcase portfolios for EPA (End-Point Assessment). Workshop attendance and course access can be monitored, allowing administrators to refine content regularly and make improvements to the materials.
