Since 2026

Staff training, rescued from a platform that was closing

The vendor was cutting off access: courses, materials and assessments would have left with the subscription. Everything was recovered, then put back in service on a platform the organisation owns.

The context

A rented training platform means content you paid for but do not hold. The day the subscription ends, the courses, the materials and the history of results go with it — the duty to train staff does not. That was exactly the situation: access at end of life, no export planned, and a deadline that was not negotiable.

The workflow, in motion

Getting the content out before the door closes

A rented training platform is content you paid for and do not hold. Access was ending on a known date; the duty to train staff was not.

Vendor platform

Access cut off. Whatever had not left is gone.

Recovery

The organisation's platform

261items recovered, with their origin recorded

For the employee

They follow their course with their usual credentials — no extra account to manage — and results are read per site.

SCORM is a standard format: that is what makes recovery possible without asking the vendor for the content again.

What we did

  • Pulling out everything still reachable at the vendor, recording where each file came from.
  • The platform itself: courses, chapters, materials, assessments and results.
  • Playing SCORM modules — the e-learning standard format — served from our own servers.
  • Connecting to existing accounts: staff sign in with their business-software credentials, no new password.
  • Result tracking, per employee and per site.

What changed

  • The training content now belongs to the organisation: it no longer depends on a subscription.
  • Not a single course was lost when access was cut off.
  • Staff have no extra account to manage: it is the one they already use.
  • Adding or fixing a course no longer means going back through a vendor.
