There’s a bit of a fashion trend going on at CPL Online at the minute, and it’s called Custom.

Since January 2012 we have provided 50% of our clients with custom consoles, and 30% of those clients also have had custom courses created that cover compliant topics relevant to their company. For example, Stonegate Pub Company worked with us to create their company induction course ‘Albert’s Law’, which prepares new employees before they begin their job at a Stonegate site; ensuring that everyone is safe and legal. But why are companies going bespoke?

Firstly, people don’t want a ‘one size fits all’ approach; they want their product to be extraordinary and individual. By creating something unique, whether it’s a website or indeed an e-learning course, it creates a talking point amongst employees, customers and competitors.

However, the most obvious reason for the Custom trend for us is training related. Training is perceived as a mundane task by most people and by providing a remedy to the boredom companies would not have to worry about pushing their employees into compliancy. Custom consoles and courses not only provide online, interactive training that create a high-quality learning experience, they also emphasise company branding and reaffirm the ethos of our client’s company.

Within all our client’s custom consoles you will find colours, images, logos, plus additional bespoke features such as buttons that are tailored to match their company branding and ensure fluidity throughout marketing. The familiar branding throughout the console ensures employees immediately recognise their training platform and that they associate their company and their online training as a collective entity.

At CPL Online we are committed to supporting the development of learners. Our bespoke e-learning platforms are the most efficient way for companies to train their staff and they are incredibly easy to use; and that’s why half of our clients have opted for the Custom trend.

Vibrant and interactive, the new site promotes CPL Online’s new services and products, including website design and development, database design, web service development, software design and development, and mobile application development. We also offer new products such as the Appraisals System and Intranet Service, which we are providing along with our well-established LMS the Hub.

Developed by the in-house designers, copywriters and programmers, the site boasts a refined colour scheme and understated layout, enhancing the ease of navigation when browsing through the site. It is the various teams’ positive and creative attitudes at our expanding company that have helped Online to grow for the past four years, providing clients with bespoke working solutions to achieve their business goals, and now leading to our new website’s launch.

The Online website was a necessary step for us to take to reflect our current business growth. CPL Online, formally known as CPLe-learning, began as an online course provider but has naturally progressed to building more software products due to the demands of our clients. Now, the CPLe-learning website will be used purely for the e-learning courses and is currently being renovated to match up to the new website’s standards.

Cplonline.co.uk is cutting-edge, invigorating, and clearly demonstrates what we can do as a company; as an up-and-coming business we hope the website is a proactive move towards securing even more corporate clients.
