Refresh for Automatic Door Suppliers Association Academy

The ADSA Academy – the online learning platform for members of the Automatic Door Suppliers Industry – has undergone a radical revamp with improved levels of functionality and personalisation.

The site, which boasts more than 60 courses (free of charge and pay per click), is now easier to navigate and will enable the Association to create and host more industry-specific content. 

Greater ownership

The changes will give learners ‘greater ownership’ and features a personalised dashboard to support continuous professional development and aid navigation. There is also a new look and feel – bringing the Academy in line with ADSA’s corporate identity and design style. 

The upgrade will also enable ADSA to streamline in-house processes: the platform boasts enhanced security features to support the management of member data, records and course bookings.

Continuous review

ADSA MD Ken Price says the the decision to improve the facility came about as part of a continuous review of ADSA processes and output.

The Academy was first launched in 2019 and, although additional course content was added over the years, it has remained ‘fundamentally the same’.

Ken adds: “It was time for us to refresh the platform and technology advancements have given us a chance to make fundamental improvements which will also support future growth and development.”

Launch this month

The new Academy will launch this month (July) with a roll-out of enhancements over the next few weeks. For existing users, new login credentials will be issued but learning records and certifications will be migrated to the new site.

In addition to improved personalisation – including user learning history and performance records – the site also has better configuration on mobile devices.

Over the past five years, more than 3000 people have used the online platform –  completing an average of three courses per person, totalling  in excess of 9000 completed courses.

Ken continues: “As our membership has grown, so has use of our Academy. We have seen a growth of over 20%, year-on-year, since its introduction. Many members now consider its free of charge content to be essential CPD for their teams.”
