Aptive Wins Gold and Silver Brandon Hall Group™ Awards for Learning and Development Initiatives
Aptive won two coveted Brandon Hall Group™ awards for excellence, including a Gold in the Best Learning Technology Implementation category and a Silver in the Best Custom Content category. The 2024 Brandon Hall Group™ Human Capital Management (HCM) Excellence Awards® recognize best practices for initiatives in learning and development; talent management; leadership development; talent acquisition; human resources; sales performance; diversity, equity and inclusion and the future of work.
Aptive took home the Gold award in partnership with LearnUpon for implementing a learning management system called Aptive Academy. Focusing on the key pillars of collaboration, communication and customization, Aptive’s Learning and Development team designed and delivered a tailored, user-friendly learning management system (LMS) under a condensed implementation timeline of four months. Aptive Academy, which is built on LearnUpon’s LMS platform, launched successfully in January 2024 and continues to deliver a customized and learner-centered experience for Aptive employees. Aptive also won a Silver award for its customized compliance course, “Ethics and Standards of Conduct in Government Contracting.” The course was Aptive’s first customized eLearning program, designed to empower learners to navigate real-world ethics and conduct scenarios in government contracting, ensuring the company remains compliant and protected.
“I am honored to receive these awards for initiatives created by our small but mighty team. At Aptive we don’t just talk about building a learning culture, we invest in the systems, programs and people to support that vision. Leading an award-winning learning and development team has been a long-time goal, and it’s truly fulfilling to see our hard work recognized by Brandon Hall Group™,” said Jennifer Farrell, Aptive’s Director of Learning and Development.
