BOSTON, MA, December 15, 2017 – Thought Industries took home the Silver award in the “Best Advance in Learning Management Technology” category for their Learning Business Platform, and the Bronze award in the “Best Advance in Emerging Learning Technology” for the Panorama licensing and user group management functionality. Thought Industries’ win was announced on December 14, 2017. All the 2017 winners are listed on the Brandon Hall website.
Thought Industries' Learning Business Platform offers a comprehensive approach to managing every aspect of online learning. The platform helps businesses to consolidate technology, optimize operations, and grow online learning capabilities. With modern cutting-edge capabilities that surpass those of an LMS, the Learning Business Platform aims to continually improve and innovate the learning experience.
Panorama, a premium set of capabilities for the platform, streamlines the creation, management, and delivery of online content for complex learning scenarios. Through licensing and user group management, businesses can create and manage multiple branded sites with curated content from a central repository. This enables businesses to accelerate the delivery of courseware to business constituents, while also simplifying the management of learning operations and future content updates.

This exciting honor further validates our vision and positioning within the online learning market.”

That is what our research says employers want, and our award winners are leading the way.”
