Provider of residential energy efficiency solutions, EAGA, has chosen e2train’s Kallidus Learning Management System (LMS) to deliver its international induction programme and other e-learning initiatives as the most energy and cost efficient solution.

Since its inception in 1990 EAGA has grown to over 4,500 employees, which as a co-owned business it refers to as partners, spread across the UK, Ireland, Canada and India. Ensuring everyone is up to speed despite geographic boundaries is a priority and by implementing Kallidus, the company can achieve its goals whilst practising its green and efficiency saving values.

As well as the induction programme, Kallidus now delivers training on customer service, change management and a wide range of general IT skills across the organisation without additional employee or partner travel. The online, social elements of Kallidus such as chat rooms and forums mean that trainees can interact and build relationships with each other, regardless of their locations.

Paul Trueman, EAGA Systems Trainer, said: “With the huge growth in demand for EAGA’s services in the past few years we have grown exponentially with employees and a strong partner network around the world. To continue meeting demand, we needed our induction process to be immediate and effective. But with such a broad geographic spread we thought carefully about our solution. We couldn’t approve excessive employee travel for example, because a fundamental part of our values is to always consider the environment and the greenest option in everything that we do.”
