Achieving Seamless Education Delivery
Fighting the Covid-19 Pandemic
The academy has operated in-house classes in Canada since 1996 but it had to shut its doors entirely during the pandemic and pivot to an online class model. During the lockdown period, the academy had to create over 70 courses to support theory training and allow their learners to study online.
Helping Learners Move to a New School
Moving from an offline to an online environment was not easy, as the team had to find a way to keep existing students enrolled in their courses. The transition required a lot of trial and error and time invested in creating the new training programs that were initially being used as test pilots for the newly-adopted training model.

Fostering Greater Engagement & Growth
Accessibility at its Finest: Going Online & Mobile
After going online, EIE managed to boost its student engagement and course success rates. Creating its own branded mobile app via LearnWorlds Mobile Builder gave its students the opportunity to access the learning content via their mobile devices 24/7. This allowed them to go through the courses whenever and as long as needed, making the transition easier and quicker.
Melissa's advice for other course creators
"Don't be afraid to ask for feedback from your students. Use their answers to improve your courses or create new ones."
