Refresh for ADSA Academy

The ADSA Academy—the online learning platform for members of the Automatic Door Suppliers Industry—has undergone a radical revamp with improved 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.

The changes have been implemented to give learners ‘greater ownership’ and feature 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.

ADSA MD Ken Price said: 

“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 remained ‘fundamentally the same.’

“It was time for us to refresh the platform and technological advancements have given us a chance to make fundamental improvements that will also support future growth and development,”

The new Academy will launch this month (July) and roll out 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 more than 9000 completed courses.

Added Ken: 

“As our membership has grown, so has the use of our Academy.

“We have seen a growth of over 20 per cent, year-on-year, since its introduction.

“Many members now consider its free-of-charge content to be essential CPD for their teams.”
