Achieve More motivationG4S Secure Solutions has nearly 625,000 employees worldwide and provides security services and solutions for governments and industries in over 120 countries. G4S is convinced e-learning doesn’t just provide economic gains but also more motivated employees. The company is leading the industry in combining traditional face-to-face training methods with online learning. Employees remember more, train up to certification alongside work, and take control of their own careers.
“Quality training is a key differentiator. Clients expect that our people and solutions not only support industry standards, but that we continuously raise the bar. E-learning combined with other learning forms give the best learning effect,” says Charles Skippertøen, Learning and Development Manager.
Achieve More savingsThe Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) established their Prosecution College in 2004, in part to deliver e-learning in areas affecting their services – criminal prosecutions in an environment of fast-paced legislative change. A cost benefit analysis indicated they would experience savings of over £100,000 per year in their Equality and Diversity programme alone.
Six years later, working with Edvantage group, the Prosecution College has expanded their offerings to include 64 programmes comprised of 240 modules and over 100 hours of e-learning. Programmes cover substantial content not only in legal training, but also management skills and business support.
Achieve More compliance As a regulated business, Virgin Atlantic Airways trains its employees to the highest standards. Virgin Atlantic partnered with Edvantage group and re-examined the way learning was designed, developed and distributed. All of the learners and content from the existing systems were moved to Learning Gateway, learning management system. Web Services were used to bridge Learning Gateway with their Oracle HR platform, reducing data entry and providing users with a single-sign on service.
To further increase efficiency, the L&D team at Virgin Atlantic began to develop basic e-learning courses in-house and only outsource select courses to other learning providers. Virgin Atlantic chose the CourseBuilder authoring tool, and Edvantage group’s instructional design specialists helped get them started with workshops on content development.

Embrace changeSpeed growthIncrease innovation
Organisations are managing a growing number of mobile workers, partners and customers – and doing so in an increasingly global and competitive marketplace. Training must help people embrace change, deepen relationships, thrive in pressure situations and, simultaneously, keep an unwavering eye on achieving business goals.
Edvantage group brings smart solutions with minimal fuss to corporate learning and development. Our focus is learning that creates the greatest impact. We help you catch employees’ attention, keep it, and make sure it is applied. We help you build strong ecosystems to leverage knowledge inside the organisation and out. Better input, better output – and the ability to respond to changing competence needs ‘on the fly’. That results in achievement.
Provide meaningful experiencesLearning must be relevant and meaningful. But that’s not all. Edvantage group engages learners emotionally. Learning should get people excited. It should motivate and engage employees, preparing them to caste themselves into new situations. To test their abilities in new ways. To challenge conventional thought.
That’s our aim in delivering every e-learning programme. We use extensive experience, top technologies, the skills of a talented team and a touch of magic to deliver award-winning experiences. Our learning is designed to be remembered and applied on the job. That’s when learning results in true performance gains, real and measurable achievement.

Integrate people and processesOrganisational learning doesn’t happen on its own. It must be nurtured. People must be motivated. Everyone has to understand the business goals and their own contribution. Building competencies and skills requires planning and execution, ideally using the products and services that Edvantage group has developed over its 10 years and plus 1,000 learning projects.
