Case Study

MAPCO

This multi-billion Israeli owned, US based Oil company has acquired several subsidiary retail outlet companies, giving it more than five hundred convenience stores and retail fuel outlets, with several different brand names, corporate cultures, hiring and training policies, etc. The company wanted to establish a hiring, orientation, and training system that would be available online in the retail outlets to help establish a global culture and an understanding of the company’s mission, mandate, policies, and opportunities.

Among other things, the design and distribution of the courses had to take into account the company’s tight security procedures, bandwidth issues in outlying areas, and a wide variation in levels of computer literacy amongst employees. The online learning courses covered general orientation and company policies, and a series of mandatory certification courses such as the handling of liquor, ephedrine, and tobacco, as well as a course in food handling, sanitation and safety procedures, dealing with robbery, etc. These courses are delivered using a custom iteration of our LMS Udutu developed for use on customized laptops and mobile tablets. Although the initial project involved only the retail division, Udutu has expanded their offerings into the refineries and head office.

Case Study

WorkSafe BC

WorkSafe BC is a Crown Corporation organization dedicated to the improvement of workplace safety across all industries in the province of British Columbia, Canada. The organization is interested in reaching the widest possible audience, and must teach thousands of workers and supervisors across every industry from Forestry to Hospitality.

To achieve its workplace safety goals, WorkSafe BC enlisted Udutu to assist with the development of course content, and then deploy the training to tens of thousands of workers located all across the province, even in remote locations with varying levels of connectivity. One challenge WorkSafe BC has is keeping track of which industries and which companies are represented by the participants who take their courses. WorkSafe BC makes its training content free to use, but requires user information to commence with coursework. In some cases WorkSafe BC online training content is used to issue certifications. Many companies also request permission to re-use the courses, in whole or in part, sometimes with customizations or branding changes, and WorkSafe BC has been generous in sharing its intellectual property to make this happen. Udutu has assisted WorkSafe BC to make all of this possible, including helping develop course content, and subsequent LMS management. One course alone, “Supervising for Safety,” has more than 23,000 active learners registered.
