What it means to be an organisation is changing.

Our Partner network is integral to the success of Totara. We select only the very best Totara Partners to join us in our mission to give organizations worldwide the freedom to learn.

#ATD2019 wrapped up last week in beautiful Washington, DC and the Totara team welcomed delegates to the Totara Village to speak with ecosystem partners who were exhibiting alongside us: eThink Education, Synegen, Moonami, Remote Learner, and GO1, with s

Is ‘gamification’ now a dirty word? What will become of the proprietary LMS? Is the way we use learning data too little, too late?

Remember that old adage “No one gets fired for buying IBM”? This essentially described the safe choice of technology, the default position for most organisations. For some, open source technology doesn’t feel like the safe choice.

The annual Learnapalooza XL Conference in Seattle is not your ordinary conference, and our very own Caped Crusader from the Open Source Brigade, Chloe Leon was able to attend and shares her highlights from the event. 

ATD ICE 2019 in Washington, DC is just around the corner. If you intend on asking exhibiting vendors about how their learning technology can help solve your workplace learning dilemmas, we have some tips on how to get the conversation started. 

The rapid rate of change in politics around the world means that it has never been more important for civil servants to ensure that the skills they need to perform their roles effectively are up-to-date and up-to-scratch.

Our first-ever EMEA Totara User Conference is rapidly approaching, and we’re starting to get excited about everything we have in store for our attendees.

As is the case with any learning platform, if you’re new to Totara Learn, you may well be wondering where to start.

We always look forward to ATD here at Totara, and this year’s lineup of speaker sessions certainly isn’t disappointing.

As learning professionals, we often get caught up in training delivery from our own perspective. We worry about our metrics, whether or not we can prove ROI for stakeholders and assessment results.

The long-awaited APAC Totara User Conference came and it did not disappoint.

Anyone who has worked in the healthcare industry in recent years knows the immense challenges faced by this crucial sector.

Compliance training remains a key concern for most L&D teams. Non-compliance can be catastrophic for an organisation, resulting in multi-million dollar fines, restrictions on business activity and irreparable reputational damage.

One of any L&D professional’s key concerns will be delivering an effective learning programme on what inevitably feels like a tight budget.

Time after time, we hear stories about organisations who sign a lengthy contract with a learning technology provider, only to find that a year into the contract, their requirements have changed to the extent that the learning platform or software no lon
