Your people face real-world risk. Generic training doesn't cut it.

Regulators, customers and auditors all want proof. We start with the challenges that keep you up at night, then build the platform that puts them to bed.

Compliance risk

Lapsed certifications and failed audits put contracts, sites and reputation on the line.

Competency gaps

Completing a course isn't the same as being able to do the job safely and well.

Duties management

As projects evolve, keeping the right people in the right roles, with the right qualifications, becomes increasingly difficult.

Workforce development

Growing skills across dispersed teams is hard without a single, structured platform.

Supply chain learning

Your obligations don't stop at your own staff. Partners and contractors need training too.

Training is too slow to create

Turning internal knowledge, documents and expertise into scalable learning takes too much time and specialist resource.

From idea to delivery: a partner, not just a platform.

We translate your objectives into a working Totara ecosystem, with BuildAI accelerating content and our Customer Success team by your side throughout.

Common questions, answered.

What people ask us most about Totara, BuildAI and compliance content. Something else? Register your interest below and we'll come back to you.

Our Services FAQ

Yes. We combine content with Totara certifications and programmes so renewals, expiry and evidence of completion are tracked automatically rather than chased by spreadsheet.
Yes, we migrate learners, course content, completion history and reporting from Moodle, SCORM-based platforms and most commercial learning platforms. We scope the migration before anything moves, so you know what carries across.
A focused rollout typically runs a few months from kick-off to go-live; larger multi-tenant or heavily integrated programmes take longer. We give you a realistic plan at scoping, not an optimistic one.
You get a named Customer Success contact alongside our support desk, plus upgrades and ongoing platform advice. Response targets are agreed in your support agreement.

Our Products FAQ

Totara is an open-source learning platform made up of three parts: Totara Learn (courses, programmes and certification), Totara Engage (LXP, for social and self-directed learning) and Totara Perform (performance and appraisals). You can use one or all three.
BuildAI is Cortexa's AI course-creation tool, built to run inside Totara. It turns your existing material, including documents, policies, transcripts and decks, into a structured, ready-to-review course.
No. Your material stays within your Totara environment and is not used to train models outside your organisation. We can walk your IT or information-security team through the detail.
We host in the UK by default, and can discuss alternative regions where you have a specific requirement. We will share our hosting, backup and security documentation on request.
