Success isn't just about innovative technology or cutting-edge solutions. It's about the remarkable journeys and accomplishments of our customers. Our customers' success stretches far beyond technology to create exceptional people experiences through engagement and culture. As we begin the new year, it's a privilege to spotlight the incredible achievements and recognition our customers earned throughout 2023.

Honoring excellence across regions: Global recognition awards


Bristlecone's accolades at the Brandon Hall HCM Excellence Awards and recognition at the ETHRWorld Future Skills Award and the 2023 Nucleus Research ROI Award highlighted their exceptional contributions to the industry. By leveraging our AI-driven peer learning platform, Bristlecone has successfully nurtured a learning culture and fostered a growth mindset within its workforce. The remarkable increase in training hours, certified professionals and employee feedback scores demonstrates their commitment to continuous improvement.

Mahindra Group claimed the bronze and gold awards at the ETHRWorld Future SKill Awards in India, exemplifying their dedication to excellence. The Gold award was for the "Best Approach to Implementing a Learning Experience Platform (LXP)" category. They have revolutionized learning with their LXP platform, offering role-specific content and empowering employees to take charge of their development. The results are outstanding, with an impressive adoption rate, thousands of completed courses and a high NPS.

DACH region's remarkable triumphs

In the DACH region, the 2023 eLearning Awards served as a platform to honor three outstanding customers: DHL Group, DKV Mobility and Flottweg SE.


DHL Group's groundbreaking "Smart Connect" app clinched the prestigious eLearning Award 2023 in the "Competence Management" category. The app ensures smooth information flow and provides extensive digital learning prospects to bring together its global workforce of 600,000 employees on a digital platform. DHL's dedication to meeting employee needs and adapting to the changing workforce landscape has earned it a well-deserved spot as a top global employer.

DKV Mobility's pioneering project, "Who Knows Teaches," secured them the eLearning Award in the "User-generated Content" category. This innovative initiative highlights self-driven learning, tapping into the internal wisdom of its employees, thereby cultivating a fresh learning culture. By encouraging employees to share their expertise and facilitating the creation of user-generated content, DKV Mobility promotes agility and empowers autonomous learning within the organization.

Flottweg SE's unwavering commitment to workplace safety ignited the creation of the Flottweg Campus, a cutting-edge digital platform for annual safety instructions. Recognized at the eLearning Awards 2023, this remarkable initiative revolutionized conventional, time-intensive safety training into adaptable, online e-learning courses. The Flottweg Campus represents a significant stride in adopting digital solutions, providing employees with accessible, top-notch safety instructions suited for today's technology-driven landscape.
